Gentlemen,
A couple things to keep in mind:
If your car is never subjected to freezing temps, there is no reason to use antifreeze. It is a poor heat transfer agent. When WaterWetter is used, any more than 15-20% antifreeze/water mix will effectively reduce it's performance. It is recommended to use pure distilled water, IF you don't have to deal with freezing temps. If you do, use only enough antifreeze to reach desired protection. Boil over temp is more a result of the system pressure. A 16 lb. system with straight water yields approx. 250 degree boil over temp. The WaterWetter does not effect boil over temp. Antifreeze will only raise it slightly. And for what is costs, it's cheap insurance to flush and change it every season.
Just my $.02 (Also, check out RedLine's website for more technical details)
