For those of you seeing no performance gains you got problems somewhere. I know of 3 different people including myself that gained .30 in the 1/4 just changing the Efans. I also gained 1.5 mpg I have the 05 Efans with a custom "white1" harness.
I have had them about a year and a half and only trouble I had was I blew a fuse from surge because of where I hooked the wire (Happened 2 days after the install) since then I have had 0 problems. I have it hooked into the PCM and the AC.

i love the electric. the howl from the clutch fan when it is warm sucks. no problems with running warm even with the 1000+rwhp 408 towing 4000lbs but someone trying to tow 10,000 lbs might have problems.
when i first got my rcsb 03 my first mods were efans and colder tstat. i took the truck to the track stock and ran a 16.6 na and a 13.9 with a 100shot. a week later i went back with efans and tstat and ran a 16.2 na and 13.4 with a 100shot.

Here's my schtick about e-fans.
Sitting the staging lanes in 95* weather (yes, at night for chrissake), engine off for 20 minutes brought my temps down 3*... Sitting the staging lanes idling the truck with both e-fans on full blast fo 5 minutes, temps came down 20*.
Just get a good harness (I bought GM fans from an 05 and a nelson harness). Never had a single problem with the GM fans. I did have trouble with flexalites -- both the harness and the fans (they didn't flow enough to keep me cool in the summer here or somethign, but the GMs do fine).
