Default manual fan switch or reprogram?

is it better to have a manual fan switch or should i just use my programmer and have it go on at a lower temp? are there any pros and cons to this?

if I'm at the track I keep it at the first line past the 160. I turn it on at 210 or just before. there is a high speed which is both fans brings down the temp super fast and a low speed which is good in traffic to keep it at a certain temp about 185.

so why not just leave the fans on all the time if it keeps it that cold?

i say get both, the diablo sport does a good job of this, and the slp switch as well, i have both, and couldnt pick one over the other if i had to, both have there pro's one doesnt outweigh the other. the best part about having it tuned in is you wont forget it by mistake

Get a switch where you can turn on the fan and than switch it back to the previous temp setting.
