Has anybody here used Redline WaterWetter and if so, what do you think about it? or is just a bunch of hype?

I'm using it but I did the following all at one time, so I couldn't tell you.

Mugen thermostat
Mugen rad cap
Mugen radiator fan switch
Fluid flush

I used it on my previous car and it actually did make a difference. But all I use now is Honda coolant.

WaterWetter is basically a surfactant. It works great in the race car. I've never needed it on a street car.

what exactly are the benefits? is this similiar to Royal Purple Ice?

Here is a cut and paste from RedLine's web site about WaterWetter.

WaterWetter® is a unique wetting agent for cooling systems which reduces coolant temperatures by as much as 30ºF. This liquid product can be used to provide rust and corrosion protection in plain water for racing engines, which provides much better heat transfer properties than glycol-based antifreeze. Or it can be added to new or used antifreeze to improve the heat transfer of ethylene and propylene glycol systems. Designed for modern aluminum, cast iron, copper, brass and bronze systems. Compatible with all antifreezes, including the latest long-life variations.

I saw the Mugen rad cap on King Motorsports web site. Does it serve any real purpose on a "street" car other than to look cool? Would the increase in pressure cause excessive pressure on the hoses or anything like that?
