Okay so a report on my 914. Drove it first to golf this morning. No problems there. Tee'd off a little before 8 so still nice & cool. Driving from there to work it was warmer as it was around 12:30. It was fine on the highway only getting up to 180 or so. Once I hit town with stop & go traffic. I creeped up to 210 which my car has never gotten over 200 even in the hottest weather. I knew my fans weren't kicking on. I got to work fine without it going past 210. Opened up the front trunk with my car running at 210 & no fans going. Both are plugged in separately so didn't think they were tied together. Used a cordless drill battery to see if the fans were actually working. One was dead & one worked. I have 10" fans. After plugging the working one back in it came on fine with the other out of the picture. Went down to the auto parts store for a new fan. Pulled a 12" out & there was just enough room for it. So I installed a 12" fan. Giving me one 10" & one 12" fan. Bam not going over 195 now even in stop & go. Let it idle for a bit too & once the fans kick on around 190 it doesn't go any higher. So problem solved there

So next on my list. I really like having the space for my feet without the center console in. Considering making a new custom center console. Debating what I want to do in front of the shifter. I kinda like ending it down low & having a round front just past the shifter. Plus adding a little height to the arm rest. It is to low for me so really does't count as an arm rest. I want to make it taller but not go as close to the shifter. Thinking of getting it closer to 8" at max height. Then going no more than 12" from the back pad. Going to do some testing with height & how close it is to the shifter. Don't want something that will affect my shifting in any way. So 8" may be to tall but the depth will matter to. With my suby & cable shift setup. I also need it to have a good 1"-1 1/2" clearance on the bottom. I do have an AFR gauge & a working clock I would need to find homes for. Also considering adding a small 6" sub up front if I keep it closer to the stock center console setup. Weighing all my options & open to other's setups. If you;ve made a custom center console setup.
