• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

[FONT=&quot]​​​​Drove it today. Fans work...but after about 30 mins in stop and go traffic, it was having a hard time to get down from 100* C, in fact it pegged there when I parked for a minute at my friends place. It creeped up to 101 for a brief period then 100 again, but couldn't get to 96. The SPAL fans I used are looking to run with more than 9A on the low setting. At full tilt they drop the temperature no problem.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]SOOOOO. I have a couple of options[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1 - pull out the fans, put the 14" curved SPAL fan in instead of straight blade fan. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]2 - pull the turbo...again. and move the recirculation tube up higher to the BPC and relocate BPC [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]3 - Wire in a relay setup that takes the trigger from the low setting and send a full 12V/40amps from the battery straight to the fan so that it runs high on Low fan speed.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]4 - Reprogram the DICE temps (this is actually an option)[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I'm going with option 4 to start, I plan to try having the fans come on low at 95* down to 92*, then high at 100* down to 96*.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I'll let you know how it goes.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]And after 30 miles, got the Sedan in the garage to play with the fans and look things over and notice my radiator upper hose was pressed firm into the delivery pipe. Huh. Look and see this[/FONT]
