TCS liquid cooling lowers motor temp 50F and forms a permanent installation into the car without obscuring the motor label or affecting normal motor installation

Additionally air fans draw 1.3watts of power per fan, whereas a TCS only uses 0.4w.

A TCS therfore gives considerably more cooling than anything else available for less power usage.

I would be convinced if I got one to try, 19T indoors, gets them motor stonking hot....

Well, worth a try isn't it, and I would be brutaly honest on the results....
