I use subaru upper cylinder cleaner, it comes in a spray can and I just coat everything and let it sit for 15mins and the carbon turns to a liquid. And its free from work

i have used oven cleaner to clean heads and intake manis. but only leave it on for a couple of minutes, it WILL eat through shit if left on too long, but it works great.
