Cooling Down

I asked this question not long ago and the only responses I got were, "Spend $350 on the Hypertech Power Programmer." That does not qualify as cheap in my book - one of the main reasons I bought a C4 is because it is relatively affordable. I even asked about any person or auto place that can just do the ECM/fan temp programming for a small fee, and nobody seemed able or interested in helping. Good luck.

Get the manual switch kit and turn on 1 or both at will. Says LT1 only but I don't why maybe someone does? Maybe it only works with auto?

Unfortunately as the 96 is OBD2 there are no cheap options. Unless you are in a location that it would be possible to change back to an OBD1 PCM, and then you may be into it more then the Hypertech.
The 94-95 can be programed fairly cheap, but there are not many options for the OBD2.
PS
If all you want is a lower temp for the fan to turn on. You could get a universal fan controller that is adjustable to use in place of the PCM.

I installed a 160 Degree hypertech thermostat($25) and bought a new Hypertech power programmer off eBay($240), I know this isn't what you probably wanted to hear,but when it comes to Vette what is cheap?after all it's the vette tax😂😂
