OK, I went to a huge car show today and i saw them in person. they were 16 inch and flowed 3300 CFM! i cant believe hwo cheap they were too. How is the qaulity? It will be going on a daily driver ( when its nice out obviously so it needs to serve me a long time. Then when the lady told me it had a lifetime warranty it pretty much sold me. im thinking about ordering one now. I have the older model flex a lite now, but i havent put it on yet. i really like how these are soo much thinner and compact. plus they ever flow better! Oh, and how do you hook them up? i see they have that 1 plug in and how do you hook it all up? also, if i get a thermostat for it, can i also run a manual switch? i would like it to turn on and off automatically when im driving it everyday. i was thinking about getting one of those painless switch panels to go under my ash tray door. is there some way to rig it so it will turn on and off automatically when i drive it on the street, but still be able to turn it on when the car is off, say like when im at the track? thanks in advance. I SURE APPRECIATE IT!!!!!

well I have one, its loud, almost anoying. but its cheap and cools the car well.

thus far, I like it, but my car is not a daily driver.

get the adjusable thermostat, add a switch and you are all set up.

I have no manual switch but my fan runs when ever needed, usally 5-6 mins after shutdown.

OOOOOO! so with JUST the thermostat, it will still run even when shutoof? as long as the key is on? and is it really loud?

you should be able to use a relay to wire it up to come on w/ the thermostat and then also if you hit a switch. I can't think of the details right now, but I think HISSIN posted about it before.

A video of how loud the fan is? Are you serious?

You have headers, an o/r h pipe, and dumps.. I highly doubt you'll hear the fan running unless you are at a stop or have your head inside the engine compartment.
