I was picking up some coolant tonight and seen a product similar to this. While we find your parts, please enter your ZIP Code at PartsAmerica.com i was wandering if anybody ran this or something similar and what everybody thinks about these type of products. I might check it out. Its coolant additive "wetter". Its supposed to drop coolant temps and help the radiator work more efficiant.

It works, but that's not necessarily a good thing for most stock cars- an engine running cooler than it should be is not at peak performance. That sort of product is certainly useful in some modified applications though, I know a lot of the turbo rotary guys run it, but they are constantly in danger of overheating.

im guessing you would probably have to change out the thermostat for the temp change in the coolant so it would opperate properly.
