I did manage to boil the fluid though, but after a full flush, haven't had it boil again. I haven't gotten the chance to run with 200TW tires and the brake ducts yet, but hopefully that will fend off any fade or fluid boiling issues.

I have been looking at the radium "kit" over the weekend, but it seems much less self-contained than phunk's RRP and somehow they made the install seem more complicated thank what I've read up on the RRP. Not sure what's going on there.

I think I'm going to skip the Z1 hydramat option. The collective knowledge seems to indicate that going with some kind of surge-tank design is the move.






I haven't been running RBF because it's still a sort of daily driven car (less and less with each passing week) and I didn't want to deal with the more frequent bleeds since it absorbs a bit more water than the standard fluid.

Other than being a bit less shiny, any thoughts from any of you on the Radium unit? Does it work as well? My next few months are looking like absolute shite (back to working 80-100hrs/week), so I feel like it's probably worth waiting for phunk to bring some goodies to the table (phunk if you read this, pretty please???).
What fluid are you using? Are you bleeding some
Of that fluid out after each track day? If not then spend the money once and do srf.
