I just did a Koyo + E-fans on my Soarer. It is fairly easy BUT there are a few small things that make it a real pain. First off, half the stuff was just slight fitment issues on the radiator so I won't go into that here. The fans themselves are cake. Old one is easy to pull off. the E-fans really just slide right in. Only thing you are going to have to work at is the wiring, and making it look nice. Also think about how you are going to control them, and what kind of temp sensor they come with if any. The one that came with mine was standard thread and would not fit my metric plug spot. Also consider how much juice the things use. I am running some serious fans that use 50 amps between the two of them. Now my electrical system drops a little too much in voltage when the car idles. So I need a stronger alternator. The last thing is, are the fans going to cover your radiator completely? If you have uncovered/uncooled space near the end tanks, then your fans aren't going to help much. Think about if you really need it. Here is a link that REALLY breaks things down (I mean to the point where they go overboard) http://soarercentral.com/sc-forum/me...tml?1165162591
