Default tuning with tunercat

I've been messing with this for a little bit and am trying to get some insight. I wont be messing with the fuel and spark stuff yet just constants. I've changed the fuel cut off speed to 255 and return at 254. I have changed the 1st-6th gear fuel cut-off to 6200 and return at 6100. Now I am confused about the fan settings. They have Fan 1 threshold (Low MPH) then (High MPH) then settings for the Fan on at Low RPM and high RPM. which settings should I change and to what? the RPM ones are at 164, and the thresholds are 108 for fan 1 and 113 for fan 2. then Fan hysteresis high and low speed is at 3*C.

any ideas? also anything else I can change before messing with fuel?

I always set the 2 values for fan 1 (low and high MPH) to the same value.
I do the same with fan 2's low and high MPH setting.

The RPM is based off of Oil temp. I have always had the coolant temp activate the fans before the oil temp kicks them on so I never really changed them.
