Default intercooler fan/fans

would running a fan/fans on an intercooler be worth giving a shot or would it be more of an air restriction. i was thinking maybe it could help with some of the heatsoak. just a question ive been curious about. you guys let me know what you think. thanx

I beleive Buick grand nationals have factory cooler fans for the intercoolers, but thats probably because they are in a shitty spot.

It probably could work just fine.

It would be good until the car starts to move then it would be pointless and possibly a restriction depending on where you mounted the IC.

Yea, buick was smart enough to build that bad *** motor, yet stupid enough to stick the IC right BEHIND the radiator !! its a pretty good looking IC for a civic etc.

They had clutch fans.
