Yes, in all my cars. I have previously seen a temperature reduction of 10-15 degrees especially in hot weather.

I also think I heard people running it in IC pump resovoir? is that correct?

Water-wetter is a redline chemical additive that reduces friction/boiling points to lower temperatures(from what I understand).

unless you've separated your cooling and i/c circuits.

i do run surfactants in both my radiator and i/c circuits. in the radiator to help with cooling and in the i/c reservoir for lubrication purposes so that i can avoid using a glycol based coolant which decreases cooling properties.

btw, i've found that royal purple's version causes less foaming compared to waterwetter.
