Default turbo and fans

what kind of fans are you guys running with your turbo?

I have a full koyo on the the teg and I was told flex a lite would work but a push set up looks cheaper.

The flexalite setup is a bit pricey so I was wondering if anyone was doing a push fan and where the got them and how much the fans were.

Honda-Tech.com: Forced Induction: New lower pricing on slim fans 12" and 10"

or this:
Honda-Tech.com: Forced Induction: Slim Fan SALE, Lowest Price On Honda-tech. 10" and 12" fans available now!!

i have ordered stuff from both of these guys and they have great prices and fast shipping. im running the 12" fan in the second link and it works great. i will be ordering a 10" fan for my a/c condensor this week.

Whatever you do try to make a shroud. I think FAL or someone has a kit. One of the must overlooked things in cooling systems. I have a stock fan with a shroud. I run cooler than 90% of the turbo Honda's I have tuned. Never saw over 202F in the summer time and that was sitting at lights in the 85F - 90F weather

You can try to fab something. Look at Fan Shrouds - summitracing.com . See if you cant come up with something for your fan. FAL fans come with shrouds
