Diesel Power F-Bomb additive

I know there are a TON of threads on additives, but I was wondering what y'all thought about the F-Bomb? It seems like it might be a bit cheaper than Diesel Kleen and definitely cheaper than the Opti-Lube I'm using now.

That may be ok on your 7.3, hell I used to dump ATF in my 7.3, but Im not sure if I would do it on a common rail motor. I dont have any experience with the f-bomb treatment (except when I smash my finger, and the treatment can get pretty wild). I have been running diesel kleen, but am looking to start running opti lube just to see if it changes anything. Where are you buying your opti-lube?

I order a gallon at a time online. It's getting way pricier than the diesel Kleen and I don't see any added benefit over DK. Only reason I got it was due to the additive report that came out a few years ago. But with all the new additives on the market now I'm curious if there is other good ones.

I have used both. Really can't tell the difference between Opti and Diesel Clean, except in the wallet.
