    Cant decide whats the most tolerable way to wire this.

    off the AC fan (AC is on about all of the time due to the humid summers (no winter driving)

    off the thermostat. (if so, WHERE is that wire)

    off the unused foglight harness.. (I like the idea of control, but what if I forget to turn it on and overheat?)

    How necessary is an EFK.... all this talk about it but how many people have overheated under noraml city dirving. I understand sitting in traffic for 30min at 100degrees might be a problem, but as long as there is flow it shouldnt be to bad right?

    Re: people with EFKs chime in here.

    when i had my EFK installed, I had done it because when my motor was out for stage 3, the installer removed the clutch fan from the engine. so i wanted a fan in there.

    OP

    i have it wired the way VAST recommends, to the Tstat, this way it comes on whenever its nessasary just as the stock fan would do, however this thing is only on for like 2 mins at a time its so strong, and i dont have the high flow just med flow SPAL sold through VAST

    can someone point out how to wire it from the Tstat? Im not sure how obvious it will be when i pull the rad off, and i want to reduce the headscratching time.

    doing this tommorow evening.
