How to trigger independent A/C condenser fan?
I'm moving the A/C condenser off the radiator and mounting with its own cooling fan. The radiator fans will no longer pull air through the condenser in this new configuration.
Any ideas how to trigger this additional fan using the ECU? I could go the simple route and trigger fan with relay connected to compressor clutch, but I would rather have the fan logic turn on/off with freon pressure.

Thanks. I was more interested in reducing power load and thereby increasing fuel economy while cruising. But if its only 10% then not going to bother.
Coincidence, I've got the same blower and cam as you. I'm finishing up a front mount intercooler and engine cooling system.
