Whether you meant it that way or not is irrevelant as it came across that way. Probably just part of the problem of comunicating with a keyboard.
yeah text has no emotion's unless your vocab level is through the roof. but mine isn't and so im sorry but i didn't mean it that way and that is why i cleared that up that i just ment i personally dont like to buy used

i dont know why you all of a sudden are flaming me. For $120 I got the fan and controller. one single 2500CFM fan is enough to cool my engine. the day i decided to turn on the heat was because i was sitting in traffic with the amibent temperature well over 102* and my A/C on full cold. for my country driving one fan is enough. im not saying if you live in Boston go with one fan. being 17, working minimum wage and living out in the sticks with just a few red lights, one is enough. Plus, 205* is not overheating....240* is overheating. get it right bud.

Not to bad mouth Troyer as a whole, but let me tell all you guys that think the Troyer fans are the shiznet a little something about their "kit". Troyer fans are nothing but off-the-shelf, can be bought at any speed shop, Derale S fans. I don't know about now, but I'm a victim of Troyers learning curve on that kit and have had 5, yes five, electrical meltdowns due to the regulators, which are also over the counter. Nothing in his kit is proprietary to Troyer.

I also suffered a hole in the radiator from using the rods and went to replace them. I called Troyer to get just their new mounting bracket and those idiots wanted $75 just for the mounting brackets. With some guidance from Patman, I built my own brackets from aluminum barstock from home depot and now have mounting brackets that'll put Troyer to shame and the bill came in at just under $14.

Now that my mounting issue is solved, my next step is rewiring, and from the research I've done there's only one way to go...SPAL!

I'm nt bad mouthing Troyer, just his fan kit. You can do better. Youcan even source all the same parts individually for cheaper.
