Hi-djnesnah sorry for taking so long to get back to you,I have it connected to an in dash switch.You only need to use it when doing slow driving.Any speed after around 80 ks there is enough air flow for the intercooler to work.Going by the Nissan Patrol thread they get around Ten kilowatts of extra grunt by using the fan at low speeds.You really notice the difference in the amount of extra hours power.Nika can you verify this as well.

Will have to put this to the test of the border track mate - bringing a load of wood on the racks again? (Just for a fair comparision).

Have to admit though, the intercooler position is not ideal for those low speed high torque needs in general offroading... Might look at trying something similar in mine!!!

Good work mate!

Matt the way she pulled the Jayco over the hill there,Even Dennis was impressed when he hopped in at on hill climb.It's amazing how such a simply component can make such a difference.

any more psi too?

Sorry James I'm not sure on that one,it is cooling the intercooler t the low speed as there is not enough air going through the bonnet to the intercooler.it is the cheaper alternative to putting on a bonnet scoop.But you deffinately feel the difference when it is turned on.

It ended up being the incorrect size fittings Zutta.the thread into the diff is a 10mm x1 mm pitch.I found some fuel line connectors that fitted perfectly,Unfortunately they came from a Mates shed so not sure where you can purchase them from.The fuel filters are from AutoBarn.I will add a photo later of the connector.

Can you elaborate on the install of the fan.

How is it mounted to the intercooler? I had a quick look today and the would appear that the plastic grill over the intercooler is set about 10mm above the cooling fins. That would mean that if you leave the grill in place you would need a spacer.

How did you mount it to the IC
