Makes it so the current isn't running through the fan controller . Eventually this winter when I put my fast xfi in I'm deleting the fan controller and the ecu will control it .What is the relay board doing for the fans? @TOOLOW91
What fan controller are you using? I think you said the fans don't draw very many amps at start up and continuous run. Based on that I wired my Contour fans straight through my FAL controller that has a 60% power up and slowly ramps up to 100%. FAL says their controllers can handle up to a 40amp start up draw. I thought I'd throw this out there for @stangboy as an option. The FAL also turns the fans on for 30 seconds after you turn the ignition off. If the FAL controller didn't have the "soft start" I would've ran a relay to help with the sudden surge of power being drawn.Makes it so the current isn't running through the fan controller .

So I scored . Brand new Aeromotive fuel pump controller for 230 shipped !
They run for 315-336 shipped depending on where I've looked .

No it's like a PWM for the pump . At lower rpm it slows the pump down to keep the heat down.Is that like a boost a pump?
Yes in one of the Facebook groupsSounds nifty, I'll have to look into one. I'm guessing you got it from someone who decided they didn't need it?
I have a Mark VIII fan and it has a pretty hefty amp draw at startup. i just have a large inline fuse right now but I'd rather use a relay.What fan controller are you using?
