OK
Here's my first go at a switch control to run BOTH fans and the Charge Air Cooler (aftercooler) pump from a switch with the engine off. According to most of the racers,This would be excellent while the car in the stage lines or in between AutoX runs. BUT it WILL BE a significant drain on the battery, so I suggest you use a battery pack as well.(or keep one handy)

It was a bit of a challenge as the 3 fan relays are configured to allow a series circuit in low speed.

It will take 3 decent (30Amp) relays and should not set ANY DTCs. These arnt really complete instructions just a diagram that assumes the person doing the mod knows how to wire up relays and switches. The only impact this will have is that when the PCM commands low speed mode only fan 1 will run (but at FULL speed - should be OK) as opposed to BOTH fans at 1/2 speed due to being in series. If the engine temperature continues to climb the the PCM will command both fans to HIGH SPEED mode which is unaffected.

Those more electrically inclined please scrutinize thouroghly and if someone wants to give it a go, they can can PM me for any additional support.
