That's what I said. As it picks up water the boiling point drops. I was saying this because you spoke of some cars boiling their fluid.

Yeah, you said it would change, I was just stating that it would drop.

I will say that when I did a majority flush (didn't bleed the entire brake system) and added some DOT4 to my OE DOT3 fluid, I noticed a difference in the clutch feel immediately, and never had problem with a sloppy clutch pedal in the high RPMs.

It may be wrth it if you track but on the daily it's questionable.

I plan to start doing some autocross events, so it wouldn't hurt to get it in the car and get it flowing through, then do another flush and add to make sure it's all one fluid type.

Honestly, I haven't had any problems thus far. However, I'm going to go with Redline MTL...nothing but great reviews.
