So I cannot fit a slim fan on the drivers side because of my tial wastegate and fp manifold.

I plan on running a pusher/puller setup and I know I have to switch the wires in order to make the fan spin the opposite direction.

My question is if I have to switch the blades around for it to be most efficient?
They are 2 cxracing slim fans.
 
Yes you have to flip the blades along with swapping the wires

I recommend checking the cfm rating on those ebay fans, they most likely wont push/pull as much as stock fans (let alone one) and cause overheating problems. Do you still have your a/c? If you don't ditch the a/c fan & buy a good pusher fan (ex. SPAL). I've ran just one stock fan with my old t-netics setup on 50/50 antifreeze with no problems during summer.

Thanks. I don't have A/C but I was planning on jumping the fan together so that when the engine cooling fan kicks on, so does the AC fan. I've heard these fans can work if setup right, but I'm not going to doubt that I'm going to need something more legit in the future.

I'll switch the blades and keep this thread updated. thanks for the help
