4.6L added Efans

Just wanted to give you guys some feedback for those of you who maybe thinking about adding efans. You should do it! not only does it give you more power but your throttle respose improves MPG improves engine work load at idle is cut in half. My edge evo displayed 33% work load with the factory and 14% with my efans that is concrete proof it made a big difference from idle to WOT.If there is anything I can do to answer any questions please just ask and i will do my best.

Almost every modular built since the first one rolled off the line has had a 130 amp alternator.All of the cars use the same alternator,and have electric fans on them,and alot more electric gizmos and gadgets that increase the load on the alternator more than the trucks have in stock form. Ford did start using a 110 amp alternator on some trim levels to reduce cost,but even that alternator is sufficient.
