7.39 cents for the hypertech china made crap... if it were more id make a big stink about it... cost me more to send it back then for me to worry about

i drilled two VERY small holes... cant remember but i think it was either 1/16th or 5/64ths not big enought to cause problems..i hope not atleast

id call them and send them the pics just so they know how junky it is lol i usally just drill 1 1/16 hole but 2 should be ok just plug your programer in and youll be able to see if its throwing a code i dont know if it would throw the CE light too glad to hear you got it fixed. are you still runnuing both fans at the same time? or just one you should try unhooking one while ideling and see how long the outher is on for im just currieous more than anything the true test will be this summer thow

While we appreciate your inquiry, we must respectfully advise that,
regrettably, the information you are seeking is not available from our
office. Any technical information from DaimlerChrysler Canada is
distributed to our dealer network. It is therefore recommended that
regular contact be pursued with your DaimlerChrysler dealer to discuss
either vehicle maintenance requirements, or a specific vehicle concern.

so i called my local dodge dealer and they told me they dont know ither so i guess im just not susposto know. i wanna know if i can go with 2 smaller ones than you did i dont think i have enuf power to run them both starting at te same time (i prob do but if i can get away with using less that would be great)

LOL gohead socha...you can hijack all you want... im SURE ive jacked the hell out of some of your threads..seeems i got a bad habbit of doing that


ryan....i wish i new a way to test the CFM .. so kind of math maybe? i figured a question like that dodge wouldnt be too helpfull... but ill let you know what i find out after i rewire and run a single fan on the hot side (inlet side) and slave the other one as a backup only...

id like to know what the CFM of that fan is at idle atleast... thats when you really gotta worry is when your idle and not moving...
