I want it . I've heard some rumours about syntheric aditive to water from some rally racers, it seems that they were talking about this thing.

BTW how much does it cost for the 10l cooling system? Maybe I can find someone, who can ship it to me from UK .

I used it on my Mazda RX-7, dropped the temperature from 110 degrees to a safer 95-100 degrees.
Think I have a few bottles hidden away somewhere so I might try it on the RS2, but since I have no problem with the temperature it might not be worth it.

Its surpose to be very good .
25 euros for 2 treatments , i use burton power for alot of things like this they ship to spain , should have mine this week

The thing is isnt the turbo water cooled as well as oil coiled?

Dunno if i'd trust a 3rd party additive if it's running through the turbo. Just a thought.

I can't see a prob. with it and the turbo, if there's a anti-freeze/water mix going round there then this stuff should be fine.

Got it in mine (Redline), hard to say if it makes a big difference because my car's standard. But in the heavy traffic leaving Goodwood the temp. stayed normal.

What is Water Wetter, and how does it work over and above the coolant additive (antifreeeze) that is already in there?

I'm interested in this because I removed my aux rad, although I've not had any problems with temperatures, it's not exactly been the hottest summer, and my air-con is kaput and I've not been driving it much, but something like this, if it does work, sounds like a good idea...

Its surpose to make the water conduct the heat better , heat up quicker and run up to 30% cooler i'm waiting for redline also . I also run with no aux rad & a nissen rad

WaterWetter® is a unique wetting agent for cooling systems which reduces coolant temperatures by as much as 30ºF. This liquid product can be used to provide rust and corrosion protection in plain water for racing engines, which provides much better heat transfer properties than glycol-based antifreeze. Or it can be added to new or used antifreeze to improve the heat transfer of ethylene and propylene glycol systems. Designed for modern aluminum, cast iron, copper, brass and bronze systems. Compatible with all antifreezes, including the latest long-life variations.

This sounds like something similar and seems pretty good value.

Millers also do one, 'rad hib cool' or something. And there's also one called 'Radiator Relief'.

Thing is, the Redline stuff is virtually the same colour as G12+ so mixes nicely.
The Millers stuff is bright blue, that Frost one is green, and they would turn the coolant a real sh*tty colour

You can get Redline stuff at a lot cheaper than at Demon Tweeks and the like. Seen in some classic car magazine ad's. Try to find where tonight.

So it's a miracle product - it does what it says on the tin with no untoward side-effects? Where can I get some!

[dan_b]

£10 on ebay for the branded Water Wetter stuff. I'm getting some...

[PeteRR]

£12 all in....nice one!
