Default Engine treatment ?

Hi, guys, I got another question.

My friend brought a 99 WRX with 190,000km on the odometer. He wants to use engine treatment and feul system cleaner to clean the engine a little bit. Is it safe, or it would damage the engine? If so, which brand do u guys recommand?

Thanks a lot.

Just use the Subaru fuel additive for the fuel system. Part number SA718

Does redline oil work as well in old engine as in new engine? Can it last 10,000km+?

Definitely needs an exfoliant and perhaps some microdermabrasion
