so youre saying to dilute oem coolant with more water?

I always do..

I used to built custom water cooled PC's for sales to games and still do from my own systems..

The rad and so on use the same metal and parts to a car in most cases and If found massive cooling differences in in % of water to coolant

The more the plain water the better and quicker the heat goes but you need to have enough coolant to stop corrosion and that's really its only job unless you live in sub 0c haha

Yeah theres a graph on the royal purple website showing the cooling temperatures of coolant/water mixtures levels. Straight water appears to have the best cooling but you dont get protection of anti rust etc.

Doesn't Coolant raise the boiling point of the water, therefore shouldn't that make it better at cooling the engine?

[trism]

Correct. The best coolant is antifreeze/antiboil. Lowers the freezing point to below 0 and raises the boiling point to above 100. Also contains corrosion inhibitors.

However, don't forget that the cooling system is under pressure, so plain water wont actually boil until about 115

the more you know!

Would rep if i could.

Hi just wondering there is any threads on here about lowering springs? I'm looking at a set of H&R's for a drop of 30mm all round. Does anyone have any thoughts on that?

What are everyone's thoughts on Tein monoflex winding master? Too stiff for an EP3?

[b16a2]

Their fine Will I run them..

[will13]

And they're alright daily? Don't want anything too spine shattering lol

[keepitlow]

^^ or you could get Tein Super Street.. more than enough for street driving/minimal circuit..

I had a set on my previous car, their are quite comfy and price is cheaper than Mono Flex too..
