Only if you capture the steam and condense it. Boiling will sterilize water but will not remove any minerals.

It's easy to do, big pot, a structure to put a bowl, fill half of the pan below structure and bowl level, bring to almost a boil, pit structure and bowl, put the cover upsidedown, put ice on it to condensate, voilá, distilled water. Or just get something to suck the vapor, like those things to make moonshine.*
Even just water won't kill, as long as it doesn't seat too long neither it's consistently repeated.*
I have a Manthey tank - arrived last week, and waiting to be fitted.
You need loads of this stuff and it’s not practical to make the quantities. Why bother - it’s not expensive?
the original tank is not carbon - it’s just looks like it is, but it’s a cover. Take a look...
Worst consumption I had was on hot day at Spa, pushing hard and got about 8km (5miles) for every litre of water. I have a 60l UK tank so will do the job for sure.
Very annoying, and the aim of the Manthey tank design was to make the water last as long as a 90l tank of fuel
And there is a Carrefour Hypermarche about 5 miles from Spa that had a load of cheap water in the ironing aisles...

Distilled water is cheap and even cheaper by the 20 liter. Not sure what all the fuss is about really. You can buy a ton of distilled water for the cost of manthey tank lol.

Yes the water is cheap, but its a pain in the *** and very annoying when you run out of water 15 min in a 30 min session. When the water is gone you lose 100 hp (give or take IMO), its like driving a different car and impossible to get into any kind of rhythm on the track. In hot regions such as Florida, the extended water take in a MUST if you plan on tracking your 2RS.

Yes, I agree. on a track day with lots of traffic, you get a few laps, then you're back in, quite possibly just as you get a clear lap!
I note the 935 has a 20l water tank, instead of 5l, which seems like quite a cheap fix by Porsche...

Porsche knew the 5L tank was too small for track use so they should have offered a extended range water tank, similar to the fuel tank.
Funny story from Spa - the four the local GT2RS guys had their stash of distilled water for the weekend and WERE NOT willing to share. They claimed distilled water is difficult to get near the track. Needless to say, when they saw we had the Manthey tank we had the last laugh.
Did you challenge them to a battle in Thunderdome? The water wars are real.

I plan tracking mine soon once I have put enough miles on so will be interested to see how bad it is. Does kinda make me wonder how they ran the car round the NR to set that time without running out of water. It seem all this weight saving has a price somewhere haha.
Who else wants in? We've got word from Manthey that we can work out a program for us U.S. GT2RS owners. 5 owners already on board, the more we can get on a pallet the cheaper shipping will be for everyone. Spread the word to those not on the forums.
