Some of it's intentionally screwy. MAF is in g/s and I prefer it that way. The check boxes should be for "metric" or "wonky american"

It won't affect when the fan kicks on from what i've seen. Fan will still come on at 217*.

Yeah the decision axis is baro pressure in bars and the lowest value is 1.04 bar or 104 kpa or 30.71 hg, so most people won't see the fans kick on at anything lower than the default value. The highest baro I've seen (dashhawk) is 102 kpa or 30.12 hg and I'm basically at sea-level.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I'm all for the metric scale except on temperature. Celsius just doesn't work for anyone with common sense. 10 degrees is cold and 40 is hot is not justifiable on any planet. Please don't post anything Celsius ever again. LOL

I dropped the ECT fan controls to 90.5*, as Ziggo mentioned, just to see if it may work on gen 2. The fan never turns on at that temp when the car is running, but when I kill the engine with the temps at 195*+ the fan will run for about 15 seconds after I turn off the engine. Fail.
