it should just be a matter of wiring in a power source for the radiator to be on with the ignition.
as for exact steps, No.
someone knows tho
good idea.

why? chances are, the fan will probably be on when you are shutting off.

Thats odd... the car's still on so it should still cool down if it needs to.... I know my fan comes on 30 secs after keys taken out like clockwork, and intervals afterwards...

is there a wire on the turbo timer that is hot only when it is counting down? if so you can use a relay to activate the fan while the turbo timer is counting down. I think the stock wiring switches ground to turn the fans on so you may have to be creative with that but i don't see why it wouldn't work.

You could run a wire from the fan to the Turbo timers Accessory output wire. That way when the turbo timer is on it keeps the fan running.

rad. fan is controlled by the ign2 wire, car by ign1. yor tt should have 2 wires, one goes to ign1 to keep the car on, and the second wire can go to ign2 (to keep fan on during countdown) or to acc (to keep radio on ).
