Some of you guys are getting really carried away with this stuff. An electric water pump and fan override switch will do the job just fine. Come back from a run, turn them both on, wait four minutes, and voila'..........the car is cool. Simple.

Always keep it simple.
+1... except I still haven't figured out why my fan isn't working. I absofukkinlutely hate electrical issues. :furious:

You're the dumbass who put a big ass single turbo right in front of the friggin' radiator where it heats the whole damn engine compartment.
:evillaugh:


sorry i couldn't afford one of those high dolla twin kits :asskiss3:



You would need to compare the airflow of the two fans against your stock single fan and then look at the amperage draw of the two fans vs. the single to see if it is worth it.

and really im not having any heat issues especially now all the piping is wrapped , i just like to have a little room between things ( yes i know a turbo was deff the wrong choice for that lol ) but the powerhouse kit relocates the radiator roughly 1" or so further back to give the intercooler room , so it tightens things up around the turbo this is basicly more less a mod out of hardheadedness ....... im ocd and add which is not a good combo , i always tinker with shit i should just leave alone hense the damn motor mounts idea:kill:but while im in there id wire in a switch too

I just show up 1 hour before the lanes open, that way the car is completly cool for the first run, hot lap the second, then let it cool for 30-45 min and repeat. I get consistant times when I do it this way.
