ive got a singe 12" derale on my scirroco and it has no issues keeping mine cool. pn on it is a 18212 if you want to check it out to see if itll work for you. i use it as a puller fan.Some older mishimoto brand fans.
Newer ones might be able to produce more flow. My Problem is you can’t fit a huge fan on the front due to clearence from the upper core support and hood latch. Since I retained my oem latch.

oh i wont disagree with you on the radiator. my scirocco does amazing now that i have a good fan. my car never gets over 205 even after beating the life out of it .I’ll check it out, as well as some others. In no way am I saying this rad can’t keep the car cool. It actually does very well. I’m just reporting what Iv experienced in dead stop traffic.
Which radiator and how did that single puller end up working out?Well, I thought I was installing 2 pusher fans but now the radiator is too close to the intercooler and won't fit. So I now have one 10" puller fan. Sure hope it's enough to keep it cool.You must be logged in to view this image or video.
Not to bring back up an old thread but did you have any issue with fitting back the front bumper?Don't know if you can see this very good or not.
I’m actually in the process of installing mine now. I’m switching from a small Honda radiator to this. One silly question..do you think there’s any chance the ac condenser could fit in between the radiatorDoesn't bother me any. That's what these are for.
No issues getting it back on after trimming the bumper some due to the intercooler being pushed forward some with the new mount. But I'm also using two 10" pusher fans now and I couldn't fit them there without removing the hood latch, causing me to have to get hood pins.
sorry to bring this thread back up three years later but what hose did you use for the upper? Is it possible to use the stock one?Only if it's very narrow and have fans for pullers only. Can't guarantee that it will work though.
No worries I don’t mind doing some hunting. Just thought I’d ask before I go run around finding oneI had to just go to the parts store and find one that matched as close as possible and the trimmed to shorten it. No idea what hose it even was. Someone else might be able to give a better answer.
