They really are great, they can pull up to 3800cfm (I believe), which I hear is more that the dual flex lite fans and the Altima fans. Plus they are really quite IMO, major plus for me is that when installed with a temp switch they only run at a certain temp, not all the time like the clutch fan.

thanks for the info i will check it out.......

But aren't the Taurus fans current whores? I remember reading that they draw up to like 30 amps of current.... Thats a shit ton.

Remove the timing chain guides, and you probably have an exhaust leak at the catalytic converter.

1) Turn up your radio.
2) Buy a minivan.
3) Get a doctor to remove the sand from your vagina.

All very valid ways to deal with this problem.

You drive a sports car. Suck it up, they are loud. If you want quiet, a Benz or a Cadillac will be right up your alley.

Fuck so its not just me

Install an electric motor, drive in the HOV lanes.
