the ECU techincally has nothing to do with it. the fan relay is triggered by the thermoswitch, the ECU just gets to know when to compensate for it.

Ah, I stand corrected. Either way, you have to have the thermoswitch with the stock ECU!

And MS1 can control the fans too. The way you worded it kinda sounded like you need a MS2

IIRC, the reroute post just said MS. (Edit) Took a quick glance at it and it does just say MS.

he referes to this : "The MS2 can run the fans instead of relying on the thermoswitch like the stock ECU. "

Brainy! I kind of vaguely somewhat see his point (I did go from saying my MS2 to MS2 in the post), but are you guys grammar ****'ing me in my build thread? :P

I mean, come on! Granted, I'm laughing my *** off about it, but still!

not being **** about it, just pointing it out. hell i can't even speel refers correctly.

Since you are being **** about it Brain, this calls for an update! Well, a backdate.

So, a bit of the history behind the car.



This is when I was just starting to pull it apart. (Why, yes, it's had at least 3 colors. I'm seriously considering repainting it white at this point.) Everything, including carpet, is gone.



This is in the middle of the first application of sound dampening paint, first round of stitch welding (MIG), and putting on a new top.



The second round of sound dampening.



The third round of sound dampening - this is the test fitting and preparing to apply the ever-great Reflectix.



Hey, all the sound dampening finished! Yes, three layers for those who have been keeping track - I'll be going back in to move it up to 4 layers this spring.



Here is the finished interior!



Time to dry-ice the mothertrucking trunk!



This is the final stages of dry icing the tar out of the trunk, in preparation for yet-more sound dampening material.



This is the first layer of sound dampening paint applied in the trunk.



This is the finished trunk.

Minus the worn stock carpet, I'm actually extremely happy with how it turned out. I'll be going back in to add in another layer of sound dampening material (Weight increase is negligible - probably ~25lbs in all for a dramatic decrease in sound) this spring, with (hopefully) Goodwin Racing's premium plush carpet set.

Nice job

Interesting. Sound dampening. what's the sound setup you are putting in?
