'Cause you gotta cool that boost when you're sitting at a stoplight, right?Originally Posted by Spestis
Nice execution, except for the fan. The fan is useless at idle (since you're not moving, the engine isn't under load, and you're not making boost), and it's more than likely a flow restriction at meaningful speed.
We put sucker fans on our charge air coolers, but that's only because our machines make full rated power when they're sitting up on jacks punching a hole in the ground.

It might be useful at the drag strip?? I see the IAT go way up while sitting in traffic, and it takes a few seconds after launch before they get down to a decent level. Then again, that could have more to do with the response times of the sensor and the LINK displaying the sensors reading. Not sure.
