I don't know what you used for your search subject, but I found 507 topics. You should find something somewhere in there.

turboren? do i just search for his name also in that post b4 (very infomative by the way) it said that a 2 stage fan would be the best for the a/c and all i'm trying to use the stock fans from my eclipse so i'm sure it's a 2 stage since it had a/c and since i still have the car i think i still have the thermostat, now the question is do i still need to buy another thermostat or can i use the one i had in that car? it was a turbo and i think it was a 180 thurmostat, now also does any one know the amount of space in the fender well? the fans look like 2 10" fans so it's about 20" they could be 2 8" fans though then it would be 16" clearance i know if they are 8" i know they'll clear but what about if they are 10" any way you guys al always helpful just some questions you can't search for! i'll get on that search for turboren's write up now

thanks
