Is the chin area behind the front bumper open? If it is open, you can close it off so the air that does come through the grill then goes through the radiator. The better use of the air means that you still get enough cooling without the huge stock grill opening...

My fan comes on at 204F; and I think the xA and the Echo have the same engine...
