I would not use it thru J tube as Radix rotors are coated and you may loosen that coating.Your safest route with Radix is to add to gas tank as it will bypass rotors and clean injectors and top end.

suck it in where your boost gauge is hooked up, that will be after the rotors. I would do it through the pcv myself. Many others, including myself have ran methanol through them which is much much more corrosive than sea foam without any ill effects.

I just put about half a can of it in a clear container and suck it through, listen to the motor and make sure you don't bog it down so it dies. I have done it through the FPR vacuum hose, its small enough so it can't suck it in too fast.
