If this is true thats what I will use, I want as much insurance as I can get! We are not going to tune for its extra power, just for cooling and safety. My car is a 7AT with 302 tq at the wheels so with the trans ratted for 300 I don't want more. Thanks for the help!

Aquamist is a good choice and is what I use. When I moved to Texas, I knew this was a must. The Aquamist held up well in 110F Texas heat. It also helped tremendously with keeping intake air temps down and boost levels consistent. In the winter I don't use it much and actually tend to turn it off.

Great! Thank you for your input! I probably wont run mine unless it's real hot or on the track. It's really to save the motor when I'm beating on it.

when i had my stillen i used stage 2 snowperformance
i did not get it tune for power but i also used it for the cooling effect
and when using it i could touch the intake manifold after a run before it the intake manifold was so hot i could cook an egg on it

i still have every thing wired up and think i may use it with my turbo kit

i had a single bung weild onto the intake just before the elbow
and in the cockpit i had a switch to turn the system on and off with an led indicator for when i was getting low on fluid

Did you see any change in oil or water temps with it?

I can't imagine it having a dramatic effect on anything but IATs.

^^ definitely. Air is not very effective at heat transfer (especially when compared to water/coolant or oil) without some type of heat sink.

Where did you find this neat little fact on 300ft lbs?
