Hey all,
Back when I raced motorcyles, I changed the coolant in my race bike to Evans Coolant. It's a waterless system and provides much higher boiling points over conventional coolants.
It was an improvement in my race bike. Suffered noticeably less loss in power when the bike got hot and it did seem to take longer to get *really* hot.
So obviously, I would think this would be a no brainer in the Porsche....but after doing a few searches...I couldn't find any reference to the stuff on rennlist at all, even in the racing section.
Has nobody really tried this stuff in the P car?

My understanding of the word "coolant" in automotive applications is that it's a mixture of water and antifreeze. Evans Coolant is said to be waterless, with a higher boiling point than typical coolant mixtures found in automobiles.
However, since Porsche recommends a mixture of 50% water and 50% antifreeze, and since Porsche recommends a certain type of antifreeze in their cars for metallurgical and/or cooling performance reasons, I won't experiment with Evans Coolant (even though it's an intriguing idea) or some other type of product that does not fall within Porsche's guidelines.
But then, that's just me.
