Haven't used it in years since my Zs are stored in a heated garage now. Can't imagine why you would need one unless your car is stored outside and temps are frequently below freezing, and you like drivng your TT at such times.

Rice raises combustion temperatures, that's why :) (n/m)

Main gain comes from the cooler air passing through
