Default Running only ONE slim fan on integra sized koyo...

Hey guys, I couldnt find it searching...

Heres the hubbub...

I bought a used koyo integra radiator a while back but never bought the slim fans i needed for it to fit.

finally got the slim fans the other day, and it turns out i still cant fit it on the A/C side.

given the fact that the slim fan blows way more cfm than the stock fans, can i run only one fan on the passenger side?

I can technically run it pusher style on the other side of the of condenser but that requires some crazy intercooler relocation, well not really, but not something i really feel like doing.

dont see why not ay.

you say it moves more cfm than stock so in essence it should be better, just make sure most of it hits the engine or wherever needs it most and you should be sweet.

hope that helped

I have a OEM Style Replacement Radiator and 14" Slim Fan.. Everything is good.. The car runs really cool..

Considering you have a Koyo and Slim Fan, I think you will be fine...

Try it out and see what happens... If you see the temp go up or run higher, install the other fan, or drill a one tiny hole in the thermostat...
