Both sides..

Right side is oil cooler fan, left side is a/c.

well this post may end..

i just took my car for a test drive and i noticed the temp quite between low and warmed up..the faster i go..the lower the temp drops..
and the more the power i feel..

i think my OPC did a good job... earlier on the third gear..my car would auto change gears (tip) at 5500 rpm now it changed at 7500 rpm..more power..

"All of these VDO tachs display a lot of needle bounce and are not that accurate at showing peaks. This is why all race cars use a recording tach such as an Autometer. The needle dynamics are FAR better and they record peak RPM excursions."
