What is Your Favorite Radiator Additive? (water wetter, purple ice, 40 below, evans)
I have used 40 below, works good.
If you use straight water, Prestone makes a cooling system"lubricant" looks like watered down milk, lubricates and has corrosion inhibitors. Looks like the white cooling stuff in a milling machine.
To use Evans, your cooling system has to be completely dry, BONE dry, you cannot mx it with water or coolant.

After seeing nothing as a result from friends experiences with water wetter and a few others, I would reccomend just mixing your antifreeze with distilled water.
My supercharged car runs hotter than a N/A car, and just with a 160 thermostat, TB bypass, and having the fans kick on earlier with the computer being tuned, my car still doesn't get very hot. The hottest I have seen it on a HIGH humidity 100+ degree day while beating the snot out of it was 200. Mostly I see it stay around 185 or so. Back when I was N/A I would see 180 max, and sometimes on a cold day I wouldn't even see 170! Trust me, if you are in need of cooling things off, there's something wrong with your car.
