Unplug the black fan controller
(next to the ecu).

to have them on at driving speeds is retarded, it reduces flow

This means that they will build up heat when they are going slow and under the most load
(acceleration) and then when they do need power because of the heatsoak etc they will have less.

We all know a colder charge is a denser charge.
I think you've gone off track here- the guy was asking about how to wire in his fans, he's bought them so therefor one would suspect that he wants to use them.

Same as I have a set that I want to use.

Why not create a post discussing this rather than hijacking the original thread?
Anyway back to point.
Kennym- you can do what toxo said or get a fan controller.

Personally I would get a resistor that's the same impedance as the fan and then run the positive from that to trigger a relay that will then turn the fans on.

I currently have a switch which makes the engine bay temp sensor go open circuit when I want them running.

It's not hard to do.
