Anyone ever think about replacing the resistor box in for the blower motor w/ a PWM setup? I've seen continuously variable fans on luxery cars, and i'd like to apply the idea to our cars. I think it'd be cool to have that, plus those times when you want a fan speed that doesn't exist && you have to settle with too much air, or not enough. I can design the controller, thats not an issue, i was just wondering your opinion on whether its a good idea or not.

Ok guys, doesn't look like I can make it plug && play. It will need a +12v source from somewhere (the +12v will be a low current line, though).
So you will have to splice one wire, and unplug the resistor box from behind the glove box. (optional, but recommended.) -------------------- QUOTE "And, as always, your friendship, help, and dedication to the advancement of Texas Celica dominance is GREATLY appreciated.
