Default 2000 CFM fan update

For those that remember this thread.

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1688628

Well I went and bought the fan, and I still dont know if it's exactly 2000 cfm but it DID fix my overheating problems. my intercooler blocking airflow is no longer an issue, the fan is POWERFUL, I beat the hell out of the car for an hour, and ran into plenty stop and go traffic, and the needle doesnt move. if you have a Turbo car with a big intercooler I highly recommend this fan. I am very happy!



Its a 12 Inch S-blade fan that supposedly flows 2000 CFM. your car will NOT run hot with this bad boy.

I personally suggest measuring your radiator. I have an OEM type Del Sol dual core radiator which I was able to put a 14" slim line fan on. It flows significantly more air than 12" fans and only costs a couple bucks more. People sticking 12" fans when you can fit 14" fans are silly.

Those fans are great. I have two of the 12" ones from b18bturbo. I use one as a puller on my radiator and the other as a pusher for my ac on my turbo setup. They blow a hell of a lot of air. 14" fans will fit easily on 1/2 size radiators if you mount them as pullers. As pushers there is a limited amount of room to work with. Pullers are better anyway.

Here are 14" fans: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...EITEM

Funny u should say that because I compared the old fan (10" slim fan) with teh new 12 inch and the diameter wa steh exact same, I was so pissed. I guess they measure the blades, and being an "S" technically it 12 inches if you were to make the blades straight. I have a PWR radiator and I measured it and had an extra inch or so all around, so when the new fan came and it was the same size. I was upset, but it actually works, so now I dont care.
