Evans waterless coolant has higher specific than Honda Type 2?
benefits
1. no water no corrosion
2. if it holds more heat per given volume,,, more buffer for hardcore driving.
iffiness
1. too thick for water pump sometimes?
2. so damn expensive.
from http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=3102751
"Im running this coolant in my hatch right now. Since i changed to this type i have took offf the head once and havent seen any type of rust, also it runs alot cooler. My car takes a decent time to warm up now before i can do my burnout. I paid $45 a gallon. I have a 3 core radiator and it used 1 1/2 gallons... I would also reccomend getting the chaser that absorbs all the old coolant/water out of your motor... Hope this helps"

aaaand assuming honda specifies same spec for cars and motorcycles

it won't make sense to flush it and get evans because i can get a gallon of type 2 at my dealership for $14 and all i have to do is flush the radiator every year,,
but. the high specific heat is tempting. they say it's probably propylen glycol??
weird question : would it help with high oil temp if coolant can absorb more heat? after hill climbs of 8mile, my car ticks valves lol.. (i thought of thicker oil then, i already have 5-30 high mileage syntehtic. why not cool it too)
