Maybe that's why I stay cool too. Forgot I put maybe 3/4 a gallon of Moore Cool racing fluid in (left over from doing my WRX) and a bottle of water wetter.

If you don't drive in the winter or live in a below 32 degree state, 100% distilled water and water wetter works nice like in my 600cc SS.

That probably has a lot to do with it. Moore Cool is good stuff. I figure 25%antifreeze 75% water and a bottle of water wetter will do fine. Houston rarely freezes, so that's not a huge concern. I still don't feel completely comfortable at 100% water. I wish someone other than Mishimoto made a lower temp thermostat. I'd like to go with a colder temp one, but I wouldn't run that one if you have it to me.
