turbo cooling system (radiator/FAN)

Post by PWRD_BY_HKS »

ok so looking at everybodys setups,

i can see most of you only have one fan and some of you even a civic radiator

my question is..... at 4 lbs do i need to upgrade fans or radiator, if a fan needs to be deleted wich one stays .... do i disconnect the sensor to keep it running constantly or will it work the way its suppoed to....

yup, you dont need the main fan, just simply wire the other to a switch. Easy stuff. I know people at 9 psi not having the main fan. Some people use slimline fans.
