I am a little unsure if I need to Dilute this or not. I know the ep3 takes nearly 5 litre when empty so would like to know if I can use the 5 litres in the container or need to dilute. Any advice appreciated.

Pretty sure it said it can be diluted mate. It didn't really state if it should or shouldn't so that's what made me ask the question.
 
Concentrate coolant will require to be mixed with distilled water. It should also state on the bottle the ratio of coolant to water for different freezing points.
Generally you can't go wrong with a 50/50 mix.

Pic hadn't loaded before, I assumed you were using Honda Type 2 as it comes in 5l.

The Honda coolant is pre-mixed and shouldn't be diluted.

As per Lewis, yours is concentrate yes you can dilute, instructions will almost certainly be on the label as to the ratios.

Edit:

Clear as mud that.

For coolant and gearbox oil I wouldn't run anything but Honda fluids.
 
Just because I'm curious, why did you opt for that particular coolant? The Honda stuff has a ridiculous lifespan and is well regarded.
