Fan controller controller

Fan controller controller. This box rocks, set the temp you want to target. With my 160 stat I'm keeping the car right at 175F.

Are you sure that the thermostat isn't what's keeping your engine cooler. I have a modified thermostat and I rarely see over 180.

My fan would come on at 200F and off a 197. EC could not get the 180 fan mod to "stick" with my car. I like to do things myself anyway....

How difficult was the install? So you manually turn on your fan, when do you usually do it, or do you have it on the whole time?

No, it automatically keeps the coolant at a set temp. It is basically intercepting the ECU signal and making the fan come on at set temp. 175 in my case. There is a dial on the board to go from 160 to 205. The fan speed will increase as the temps get higher just like stock.

A few wires and threaded the sensor into the thermostat housing. Easy!

Very cool and seems to be fairly reasonable.
