Looking for puller fan recommendations

[mantega4g63]

First off before WHY U NO GOOGLE/SEARCH, I've searched google and this forum numerous times for "best fan shroud dsm" "best fan dsm" etc etc, all I find is outdated threads with part numbers for flex a lite fans that don't even exist on their website anymore. Every other post is get a mishimoto fan shroud, some people love them and some people swear up and down they're absolute trash. Flex a lite seems to be a favorite as well, I'm looking for at least 1500+ cfm and look forward to running dual fans. My setup is a cx racing radiator, fitment won't really be an issue because I use the stock manifold and fmic shouldn't be in the way. My fans now are crappy advance auto fans and they've ceased to work.

Shroud seems to be a very good path, so I'm interested in anything with a shroud but what do you guys recommend? Again don't post "i have this fan and heres the part number", with some part number that doesn't even exist on the fal site

Get a single Syclone fan install it on the passenger side of the radiator, it will pull more than enough air for your car. Its something like 2100cfm. Moves a hell of allot of air. Its big though and requires it to be mounted on the passenger side of the radiator.

I recommend spal fans. The actually flow as advertised, low profile, smooth quiet reliable operation for years to come.

I second the vote for spal

I use flex a light and love it. Quiet and still moves 1250cfm. I run it as a pusher on the passenger side with stock radiator and it keeps temperatures under 200.

Everyone likes to spend little money on stuff like this and then it doesn't work or breaks and they buy another when they can do it right the first time. So if you want to do right the first time get this guy. I had it and LOVED IT.

If fitment isn't an issue, why not mount the stock fans on the CX radiator? There's a write up on how to do so and it look every easy. Not to mention they flow at 1600 CFM, which is typically higher than aftermarket slim fans.

As for one fan cooling the engine, I used only the stock engine fan for an entire summer with no issues. The stock slim fan is only for AC or very high temps. Aftermarket fans are usually wired together because, like I mentioned, they typically flow less than stock fans.

Fitment wont be an issue, the stock fan would be nice but i have an aftermarket radiator and am looking to have 2 fans on this beefy thing

Then run two a/c fans. One of them alone will flow more than 2 cheap slim fans.

Then run both stock fans and wire them together at the relay.

Wheres the best place to find stock fans?

 

[92AWDHX40]

Salvage yards anywhere you can for used car parts.

 

[mantega4g63]

Are the mishimoto fans any good with the shroud? I might have to see if I can find some ac fans or the stock rad fan

[SmalltownDSMer]

I'm running the mishimoto fans and shroud, they have done great for me even with no heat shield or anything over my FP exhaust mani and external WG.

[OutKastGSX]

Oops I linked the pusher fan. This one is the puller. http://www.spalusa.com/store/main.aspx?p=itemdetail&item=30102044 Same fan otherwise...

I had to switch to a 30 amp fuse. It kept blowing the 25 amp one I had. It probably draws more then the spec says when it first kicks on.

If you have room I'd go with OEM, if you need a low profile I'd go with Hayden. Hayden is a supplier to many OEM's and the design and testing that's required for OEM is significant and translates to after-market. I had Mishimoto fans mounted to their shroud and the legs of the grill that supports the motor began to break away from the circuilar housing.

 

[jrohner]

I also vote stock fans if you have room.

 

[mantega4g63]

junk yard the only place for oem fans? having no luck
