I've got a post around here somewhere that has about 25 brands of wet/dry boiling points and prices and such.
Edit... okay, so it was 15 different fluids.

not the same high $$$ stuff as that, but 99.99% of the people on this forum will never need anything on the list above.

Based on suggestions like these I switched from Motul 600 costing $100/gal to Valvoline at 1/4 the price. It's dry boiling point is right at my temp limit and it's a bargain to replace each year.
I've been using ATE Blue/yellow and am switching to the valvoline pretty much. even with slicks and 100* weather here, I still haven't boiled the fluid in either car yet.. why pay for something I don't need?
