dame, i thought they went whith electrical as oem. i dont know anything at all bout mk4 lol.
im gussing im gona have to have the low speed turn on at 210 and turn off at 180. i could just run the factory set up and see where operating temp bounderys are and set the fans to stay in that heat range... any one know the factory operating temps off the top of there head?( ideal temp)

Thanks for posting some numbers Sonyps307. If you had two different speeds for the fans how do you think they would be best employed? I'm thinking turn on on low speed to help clear some heat out of the engine bay (popular mod on the MR2 but heat's a little more of an issue given their engine placement) and then hold off on high speed until you're sure you need the extra airflow.
