Has anyone used evans coolant in an evo yet? Supposidly it has no water in it but has a much higher boiling point and is a true lifetime coolant?

Please comment if you have used this or know someone who has.
Thanks

 

anyone I would think with all the heat our motors make this inexpensive fluid would make a difference?

 

back in my old mr2 days,many years ago, they were talking about this stuff on the boards. I know someone who used it with no issues, but at the same time no dramatic improvements either. It lets you run hotter coolant temps without boiling over as easily. Its really only beneficial if your engine is tuned and setup to run much hotter and you need more protection. Nascar engines run really high psi coolant pressures, ~45 psi iirc, to increase the boiling point of the water to keep from boiling over from drawing all the heat away from those engines.
Are you having issues with overheating? If its for racing purposes you might be better off just upgrading your radiator.

 

i run evans coolant, this **** is expensive but it works great!!!! IT IS ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in some states, however i have had no probs with this coolant!!!

 

I ran it. it made the A/C not work so well from the elevated radiator temps. It doesnt cool better. It cools worse. But as stated you can run higher temps with the stuff since there is no water to boil. Its impossible to get water out of block with head on. Really should only be used if engine is out and you can get system completely dry before using it.

 

The idea of lifetime coolant seems silly to me since about every car project I do includes draining the coolant.

 

thanks for all the responses, reason being I am going to a fully built motor 10k rpm motor with an fp black and figured while I am in there what the hell.

 

It's not needed in most cases, this is for strictly full race engines. If you're trying to increase coolant performance, try something like "water wetter" by Redline.

 

Were you monitoring your coolant temps with your previous setup? Were they above normal?

 

i used this in my track car and had no overheating issues whatsoever,i like it
