It just depends on how clean the injectors are to start with, if they're already clean then obviously it won't make any difference. I've used injection cleaner on cars that have had idling issues and rough running and a dose of it has done the trick. But obviously it will only help if a dirty fuel system is actually causing the fault.
As for the fuels, in terms of increased performance, different engines like different fuels. My jaguar for example wasn't noticeably different on v power but was a little more spritely and gave a couple of mpg more on BP ultimate. My classic mini showed no benefit from bp ultimate, but with v-power you'll get popping in the exhaust when decelerating, so that definitely runs differently. My mums Citroen diesel used to smoke on Tesco diesel but not on sainsburys diesel.
A van that's driven long distances day in day out will probably be pretty clean internally anyway. Whether any extra performance is worth the money is anyone's guess but it can only do good keeping the injectors clean.
