Probably not, i installed a drag kit on a gsr and it didnt clear the stock fan AT ALL. He had to go buy a 10" slim fan and mount it as a pusher in front of the rad.

it depends on how the manifold was made and how the turbo/downpipe sits.

i run a ramhorn with a 3" dp . i can use the stock fan if i wanted but went with a 12" slimfan

You need a slim line fan. Squeeze in a 14" slim line fan.
