So we all know that the supercharged engines need the intake bypass valve so they work in reverse. Otherwise the supercharger would just suck all the air out of the cylinder

Ethyl Glycol based coolant such as prestone, etc. are fine. The other critical item that most don't use is distilled (AKA PURE) water. Using tap or even filtered tap, or bottled water is not advisable as they all have impurities which will eventually calcify and clog your cooling system.

HTH.
