Gonna buy this stuff on frozencpu bc im enjoying the new free shipping deal.

I have a tj07 murdermod build that I did about 2 years ago. Im going to do a full tear down/clean/refill thats needed to be done for a while.

Id like to buy new tubing, add a drain port, get a new silver coil (is this still a trust worthy anti algea thing?), and replace the water. Is there a preferred coolant now or is it still just distilled + coils?

My current tubing is PrimoFlex Pro LRT Black Tubing -7/16in. ID X 5/8in is this still the preferred tubing or is there a better one? Ive had some kinking problems with this tubing that annoys me.
If you could tell me what parts I need to buy to add a drain port to my system id really appreciate it.

Thanks guys.. a little behind in the times

I still use distilled + silver coils mainly. Some people prefer biocides. Coolant is generally a waste of money when you can use water for less. Also primochill have released the advanced LRT now that's supposedly better. Haven't tried it yet, but that's what I'll buy next.

I've used the DD ones in the past as fill ports but now they're out of the business, PPCs still has stock though: http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=59_346_342&products_id=20509

Plenty of people use the BP one too: http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=59_346_393_623&products_id=28425
