Thats why I am doing the Volvo fan setup..
I've heard all the arguments that if your alternators being used more its just as effective in robbing you of MPG but I if I have to remind people again that I cant shut off a fan clutch while traversing water either. even if outside of that MPG was a wash, I'd still do the Efan.
Which reminds me, my new OEM 940 Volvo fan shroud is close to due for delivery.. Already got the BMW temp switch and BMW wiring pig tails, a Mishimoto inline rad hose sensor port for that sensor, dual fan relay switch and some creative wiring on my part.... Only thing I haven't found is the little rubber flappy things which i can always make those if need be.
This was the info I used. Volvo E-Fan write up
