I don't know if this means anything, but a Honda technician once told me that Cheveron w/Techron is all you need for injector cleaning.
If you have lots o' miles then the best thing would be to remove then and have RC Engineering clean them.

drive to almost empty, fill halfway up with 93 Octane pour in bottle of injector cleaner fill rest of tank with same 93 Octane and when you drive away peg the tach for about a mile or so and that should unclog just about anything clogging your injectors...its worked for me several times in the past with several different cars

I've been using RedX injector cleaner for years, i dont know if it helps any but i suppose it does unclog some of the crap in them, I usually stick in half a bottle every 3/4 months or so
