Best fuel injection cleaner for DFI cars.

To clean the injectors/fuel system, my understanding is a combo is Berrymans B12 and Techron is hard to beat.
Are people putting both in one tank generally or running them in 2 separate tanks? I never really got the gist there. Logic would tell me do them separately as you never know how chemicals interreact.
I separate as well.
Separate tanks. Berryman's then Techron or Redline SI-1.
Berrymans also has a fuel system cleaner but I haven't compared the ingredients to their B12.

I’d add also Techron and Regane with PEA/PIBA
Yes Direct fuel injection injection into the combustion chamber. Not in the intake manifold. Also I know at sometime the intake will need to be remove and walnut blust the head intake and valves. But there a number of CRV people replacing injector at under 100 k miles. PS it was my understanding no cleaner was recommend for it.
I use Redline SL1 at 60% and 20% olm on my wife’s DI Pilot.
Redline SL1 is very good. 4 pack is the lowest price in market per oz.

What's the advantage of using a solvent based additive such as the Berrymans? IE, what is it cleaning that the PEA can't/doesn't?
There's some research that some detergents can help maintain GDI valve cleanliness. I believe this is a reference to detergents that can survive the burning process will reach the intake valves via EGR.

So what is the new "afton" product? It is still very hard to expect a cleaner (unless it is some super duty synthetic element) to survive the trip from gas pump, to gas tank to direct injection to some how affect cleaning of the valves. It has got to be some liquid that does not incinerate instantly. Seems it would be massive news and a monster seller for everyone from dealerships to auto parts stores etc.....
