use the entire bottle, test the vacuum tube by feeling for suction, not a big deal

thanks for the input everyone

Would you use seafoam on a supercharged (twin screw) application?

^^^ to be honest, i have no idea; but if i were to guess, i don't see how it would hurt a forced induction setup.

Bad news.
Dont suck it in with a vacuum line.
You cant control the amount correctly.
Add it to a 1/8 tank of fuel for the same effect.
Its not recommended for manifold applications on FI vehicles.
The computer will go nuts trying to hold the O2 sensor readings right.

I tried this today, put half in the gas tank, sucked half through the vacuum line. I didn't get the smoke show, but I did go on to the highway and floor it and a lot of smoke came out... but that was it. It did seem to rev a little better. Going to run this tank out then get the oil changed.
