As a side note, you should never run just plain water in your coolant system. You should always use distilled water, as presure2 said. Otherwise, we're beating a dead horse here. Any coolant will work, don't mix coolants, etc.

I run just water WITH water wetter in my chargecooler system as per what the OP asked. Never had any problems with this setup, and yes water wetter by itself has anti corosive properties, enough for the simple chargecooler setup..Anywho, i agree any setup will work. I just see no reason to BUY extra antifreeze unless you dont want your water to freeze... -------------------- (\__/)
