It's effeciveness is pretty anecdotal. Using a bottle of techron is pointless if you're using "top tier" fuel.
The dealer fuel injector service on the other hand is a low-to-mid cost "peace of mind" service that if you feel you need basedo n throttle response and fuel efficiency, just get it. I think they use an electrical process to clean carbon off the injectors and throttle bottles. This is obviously different from a bottle of techron. Most people will say this service and a techron bottle is pointless if you're using "top tier" fuel. I think the dealer service in the 150-200 range and is recommended after 15,000 miles of mixed driving.

Just did this using BG44. Friend a mechanic at Toyota dealer so he did it for me. Came in a 3 pack. Cleaned throttle body, poured bg44 in gas tank and also hooked a small bottle of bg44 to one of the lines connected to engine and let the device push the liquid through the system
