sure, like i said at the very top, letting the fans run will move a bit of air around the bay to help with heatsoak issues... BUT:

if the thermos are simply running off the thermatic switch in the bottom of the radiator, and are say switched to come on at 70deg or something, how long do you think the thermos are going to run on for before the temp of the water at the bottom of the radiator goes below 70deg??

the switching of the fans has sfa with the engine bay temp. having them run for say a standard period of 5 mins after shutting down the car might be a good idea, but i dont think that having them run on, and governed by the coolant temp, is a good way of doing it.

as i said before, if theres big engine temp and turbo temp issues after shutdown, get a turbotimer, and let the fans run on with it...
