[QUOTE="ddgermann, post: 115002, member: 3537"] "Well, seem that I will have to stick with OEM fluid for my supercharger. Her is what I can call an honest answer from Evans to the e-mail I sent about using their product Question : Hi. My car is a2012 Corvette ZR1 with the oem liquid cool supercharger. Many LS9 had problems when drove hard, the cooling bricks in the supercharger tend to melt because of hot compress air. Should switching the oem coolant in the supercharger to Evans coolant can help reduce the heat in it? Have you had any feedback about it? Only other alternative I know about is only water with water wetter. Don’t want to do any mistake so better ask qualified peoples. Thanks Stephane Answer: Stephane: The Corvette supercharger application is a problem that Evans cannot solve. We do not use our fluid in the supercharger of our 2016 ZO6 LT4 test car because of the problems associated with this application. The OEM fluid is a good start I believe it is 60% water, 100% water would be better but corrosion will be a problem. The engine is where Evans High Performance Coolant works better than the OEM fluid. Evans High Performance Coolant is designed for the engine because of the coolant boiling in the combustion chamber location. In normal conditions under high load the supercharger is not boiling the coolant. Thank you Tech support I do like peoples who will give a straith answer even if they will loose the sale." Evans has a very good reputation and clearly we can see why. Very cool they are already testing in this application with a supercharged Corvette and tell it like it is. Hope you find cooling medium for your ZR1 that leaves you confident to press that beast without $$$ worries hampering the experience man. Great post Stephane :thumbs: Derek [/QUOTE]
