Title: intercooler cooling options
Post by: nogama3 on August 24, 2007, 10:30:06 am
guys, i was thinking about adding a small fan to provide constant cool air to the intercooler as it appears to have limited air to it, see pic:

No idea WTF is going on in this thread... :P

Any autopart store should carry slim universal fans that should fit on your intercooler. IIRC they go as small as 6" or 7" in diameter.

seen some motorbike fans that look like they could fit but i am currently swayed by fitting a front mount intercooler instead....its the chopping and fitting that i'm more worried about...once its purchased there's no going back!
