wired up the fan today. jaysus this thing pulls some air! it can be heard if you stand at the front of the vehicle.
im happy with the results of fitting this. first drive out the power increase at higher revs was noticeable, foot planted to the floor in all scenarios other than towing i couldnt get above 1200 f. i could surpass this before without thinking about it.
ive now turned up the main fuel screw and put a grind on the fuel pin as the 80 felt a bit flat low down in the rev range.
runs great and still plenty of tinkering to do.
have to say the lads at cross country were great to deal with, plenty of e mails and a couple of phone calls which after my "mornin" was normally greated with "what you talking about? its beer o clock here!"
everything is very well made, welding is great, hoses are gates and the jubilee clips are made in oz. no scrimping anywhere.
if your after putting your foot on the first rung of the power increase ladder, or if your 80 series life needs spicing up a little i would certainly recommend a good, well matched intercooler.
