I'm running a PWR, but its a full size and for a DSM. Thing is, it doesen't really matter, the universal style radiator fans fit on all types of radiators, hence universal. If you can fit a stock fan, run it. They work well with the ducting. If not I got a 12" universal fan from Advanced Auto. It has clips that go through the radiator fin to secure it to the radiator. Works really well. Its a brand called "Hayden" or something. My friend runs one as well on his crx, they work really good.

I tried a FAL civic fan but it didn't fit as good as the generic $60 one that someone on here sells on this board. I don't have the link but that one fit pretty good.

Pep Boys fans suck ***...they charge you over $60 guaranteed. The only one I could get from autozone was a weaksauce 10" fan. I wasted $60 on that.
I'm telling you, just find out the guy who sells the 12" fans for $60 shipped...all you'd need to do is buy the fan mounting straps that ARE available from Kragen, AutoZone, etc.
Whatever though,... Seems like you got your mind made up.

Viren has awsome deals, I got my 14" pusher fan from him for like $90 shipped (I think, can't remember an exact price)
BTW, it was at my house within 3 days.

I had a write up about it somewhere in the forced induction archives. If Viren still sells the Proform or Permacool (p something) I would definately take it over the Autozone one. It flows more CFM at a lower amp draw

Make sure that when you wire it up and youre going to use it as a PULLER fan, meaning its behind the radiator towards the firewall, then you should connect the black wire to the blue oem wire and blue wire to the black oem wire.
If you're going to put it infront of the radiator where the AC condeser is and use it as a PUSHER fan then just match up the wires and you're good to go.
BTW: I got the fan from the same guy you got it from
