It seems for me better solution than a lower thermostat or additive to just add some more de-ionized water in my antifreeze!
Subaru uses "Super coolant" that is 50-50 water-ethylene glycol mix for -32C degrees and the lower I have seen locally the last fifteen years is -12C degrees thus adding at 7.5t antifreeze of the car say 750ml (10%) de-ionized water will increase cooling capacity without creating problems the winter, I am thinking of a 60-40 water-ethylene glycol mix what do you guys think?
