    Well, we have a Pro Star Mazda, a few Elan DP-02's, and a couple of Porsche GT3 Cup cars at the shop and we run a Distilled water/Water Wetter Mix. It is supposed to reduce the water temps, but in the winter time, we do switch it back to an antifreeze mix just so it does not freeze up and crack the head or the pipes, etc. But, to answer your question, our cars run too cool as it is, so we have to run specifically-sized blocking panels on the radiators to bring the running water temps up to where we like it. The motors get REALLY happy around 180-190 degrees.
    I don't need a sig. Oh wait, damn it.
