Re:how to rewire radiator fan?
Well maybe if you had a dumptube off your wastegate not directly aiming 900 degrees of exhaust gases at your radiator you wouldnt have any types of cooling problems 
Put a dumptube on, and wire the fan switch so its on with your ignition and you wont have any problems.

Re:how to rewire radiator fan?
why dont you just invest in a turbo timer and let it stay on for like 5-10mins
power to the fan is switched by the ignition switch, so connect the black/yellow wire on the fan connector to your positive battery terminal through a 15 amp fuse. the ground side is switched by the coolant thermoswitch via a relay. it won't turn on and off depending on underhood temps, but by coolant temp.
without the car running, the water pump will not be turning, and so leaving the radiator fan on when the car is off only cools the water in the radiator. what good is that..

Re:how to rewire radiator fan?
you can tap the ele connection at the fuse box for 12 V + when the ket is at acc. i belive its the 2nd one in from the left on the connections above the blade fuse's. run a wire from there to the (ithink) red/black wire on teh fan wiring harness and there you will have power on when you go to start the car and it wont turn off till you kill the car.
