I have a little update. I've been driving the Cougar quite a bit and working on the tune, so I decided to play with the fan settings a bit. I had the fan set to 40% in the 190 and 200 degree cells, but I wanted to see how low I could go with the fan speed at idle and still maintain temps in the 193-195 range. So I lowered fan speed to 25% in the 190 and 200 degree cells and let the car idle for 5 minutes. No change in temps. This fan just kicks ass...
I also scaled the temps above 40 mph so that the fan doesn't kick on at all until 200 degrees. I think for me, having a hole in the hood helps a lot...LOL
My ultimate goal is to cycle that fan as little as needed...
