Also I used one bottle of water wetter in the turbo coolant and 2 in the radiator as well.
I don't have any "heat" issues, I just hate that it normally runs at such high temps. I've used the BMW coolant for both; I'm assuming from your experience it's better to use red line's WW?

Sometimes I get the "itch" to step on the gas a little; I worry about the heat ruining the internals slowly but surely. So, whatever helps it last longer, I'd do it.

Good to hear from you
