Default water wetter safe to use in Magnacharger's cooling system??
Is it safe to run water wetter in the Magnacharger's cooling system? Will it hurt any seals etc etc? Thanks.

I live in deep south Texas(rarely gets below freezing during the winter). It currently is filled with dex-cool. How much water wetter do I pour in the Maggie's reservoir?

It says right on the bottle, so many ounces of WW for each gallon. It's not much.

You only use 1oz per Quart so it goes a long way. As Moregrip said, it's not an anti-freeze so your tamk will freeze below 32*.

i run distilled water and water wetter, plus a little bit of dex cool to keep the scale buildup to a minimum

Water Wetter does do much in the lower temperatures in the intercooler system.

Thanks guys for your quick responses. One last question, does anyone know the coolant capacity of the Maggie's system? I'm guessing no more than a gallon?
