Fan stays on
I just added a Haltech cold air intake. After running it a little hard it seems that the fan stays on about 10 to 15 minutes after shutting off the car the temp was only at 205 max. Is this normal or is there something that needs to be done

Mine does this sometimes and random but this is without installing said Haltech intake. Think it is something the car should normally. I think if it was something to be concerned about etc you would be seeing some error on the dash.

To elaborate a bit more, installing my aFe intake made no meaningful change in the way the engine bay fan runs at shutdown. Even with headers and cats on the hottest TX summer days, my fan will typically only run for a minute or two after a hot shutdown.
One test you could do is raising the "hood" after a hot shutdown to see if that aids in cool down and reduces fan run-time.
