Default CFM enough to cool a Boosted R??

got my fluidyne today and test fitted it, the problem is that i got an 10" spal fan that will pull 1070 cfm's and 3.7 inch thick, it's hitting my intank pipping. should i get some foam piece and put it in between? or get the 10' spal fan that only flow 650 cfm but will clear perfectly?? is 650 cfm going to be enough in the summertime in cali? i'm talking about 100 degress sitting still with the a/c on..

much advice need! thanks. mark.

I ran all summer at the drags with a pepboys version of a spal. it was a 12 inch version but i dont know the flow rate. Anyways the car ran cool as hell but i also had a Fluidyne and a mugen t-stat. I know its way off but i think you will be alright with the lower output one. I think it will be ok since the stock radiator fan is really low output. Jstu my 2 thoughts.
