But that is just what I’ve read. How long have you been using it for and how have you found it vs the normal dot 3/4 fluid ? > [@FS 91 civic hatch(auto) $300 COME GET IT NOW](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/fs-91-civic-hatch-auto-300-come-get-it-now/17124/5): > > If you’re thinking about ATF or some racing temp fluid, do it. It’s very very worth it. Especially if you track at all, and with the amount of effort you’ve gone through so far, don’t skimp out on something like that… Yea I was looking at/reading about this stuff… Dry boiling point minimum: 536 degrees F Wet boiling point minimum: 388 degrees F And apparently it hardly absorbs any moisture at all making it perfect for longevity and to top it off, its not overly expensive. I just have to find out where I can get it locally cause I want my car on the road this weekend. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/brake-fluid/116386)._
