This is a strange question, but... I have a slim fan from autozone which fits perfectly against the coils of the stock 1g radiator with very little gaps at the top and bottom of the fan. I used to have another smaller one that ran with it but the wires got melted right where they went into the electric motor from the heat of the turbo. The smaller one use to sit directly in front of the turbo and the larger one sits to the left of the turbo.
Since I have only 1 fan running all the time now, should that fan be sitting in front of the turbo instead of to the left of the turbo? What could I use to prevent the wires from being melted again? Maybe the heat coming off of the turbo is actually heating up the radiator. I cannot fit 2 of the large fans on the radiator since the width is too big and I am limited on money right now, so buying another fan is not an option at the moment.
