depends on what year your car is,if tag on raidor support says dexcool only then yes,never use the premix 50-50.read all lables under hood and raidor cap or overflow tank for dexcool,or open cap and look inside raidor to see what color is in it or in overflow tank.

It depends on whether or not your car uses 'the orange stuff'. Mine uses 'the green stuff'.
