If you use the Taurus fan, be prepared. I heard those things have some serious amp draw...

I rock a taurus and stock efan, I never use the stock one tho and I dont have High on the taurus. I would say making the taurus fan fit was the hardest part. You have to punch out the shaft for the mech fan and maybe grind down the bracket alittle. Wasnt too bad.

Basic wiring was:

Interior fuse panel: accessories ---> switch --->relay ---> ground

then:

Power distribution box ---> fuse ---> relay --->fan --->ground

High is wired the same but havent found a relay that can handle the amps yet, not really looking

Another option I've heard of is the Audi A4 dual fan setup. Supposed to be an almost bolt in. Have a friend scrapping his A4 soon and I'll get the fan from him and do a write up. I hope!

definately let me know as soon as possible because if that works and the fan its self works better than the mechanical on in my jeep right now im defiantly going to swap to that dual fan setup
