how much coolant/w.e goes in your h/e?

installed I believe a cobra h/e , doesn't have a fillup on the h/e itself so you have to fill it from the reservoir next to the sc. well I leave it running for 15mins and it stays the same as I filled it. Although after I drive around for 10mins on medium throttle (get on it a little bit) the thing is empty! So I fill it. I have no leaks, I checked while leaving the car running. but is this normal. I filled it like 4 times, but only went through half or a little less of dexcool. Will It eventually stop and I wont have to fill it anymore? Again, no leaks unless it spurts out under a load. I reved the engine a bit and checked for leaks as well.

also added about 1 bottle of distilled water. ( a ice mountain bottle full) like 12oz I believe.

you should see it cycling through the resevoir in front of the supercharger when it is full enough

I would keep checking it over the next few days until all the air is purged out. You may have to add more coolant/water.

Its normal. Its getting the air out of the system. It took me a few days of keep filling to get it full. You'll know whrn it's full when you see the fluid and don't have to fill it up nomore. Just keep filling over the next few days. And don't drive with the cap off just keep filling
