Cooling for a b16 with place racing mounts with a big t3/t4 turbo
I really need to some input on how to cool my car with this setup. I have absolutly no room for a fan. I have a del sol dual core radiator and it works fine until the tempature outside rises up past 85 degrees and then it starts to run hot since I have no fan and no room for one. Is anybody running this setup or does anyone have any suggestions.

So would I need to get a pusher or puller fan, and will a 6in fan be fine, I really only plan to run close to 300 hp eventually.

do you have no room for your factory fan or no room for a fan at all? you can buy a slim fan and put it in place of your factory one.

I have no room at all, my turbo sits like 1 to 1 1/2" from the radiator. It sucks cause there really is no room.

get a larger 12inch slimline pusher fan from autozone its pretty cheap cost like 45 bucks.. works well. make sure you wire it to push air in rather than pull

and dont use the little zip ties that come with the fan kit. they will rip throught the fins in the radiator.

I run something VERY similar to you, hope this pics helps
Thats a slim-line fan like what they've been talking about.

Yeah thats pretty close, but I don't have any room at all, I guess I will go from the other side.
