Do not hold my feet to the fire on the exact numbers but you will get the general idea.

It takes 15 to 20 HP to drive the clutch type fan that comes from the factory. With electric fans the heavy factory fan is removed so you get back that lost hp. If set up properly the electric fans only turn on when needed.

I have the same question I got mine used from Mixedbreed and they did not come with any directions everything is put together. I think i know what wires in need to tap into. The little plug hanging off the computer, it should be the two wires on the outside right but i am not sure which is which :o
