the fan i was looking at mounts in front of your radiator and you remove the fan infront of your exhaust manifold.it puts out 780cfm which is about 3times what the stock fan puts out keeps your car running cooler temps which means less work for the engine=hp. Plus if your ever going to put a turbo setup on your car you would have to repalce the stock fan anyway it gets in the way of the turbo

Keep down radiator temps I'd assume. I think he's talking about the plastic fan that cools the radiator.

If that's a US number it's not subscribed, called it because it's a Denver area code...but it's not hooked up. Maybe they make electric turbos.

No listing on yellowpages.com either... I tend to agree with Lan Evo on this one. Does this place really exist?

Well whatever the case may be, slimline fans aren't going to do anyone much good unless they're running a turbo and space is an issue somehow.

I guess the practicality is lost on me...albeit driving at top speed all the time would certainly make for more intersting days.

I take it your eclipse is ungoverned? I mean, a part is a part and they should all be appreciated, but some are really a lot more practical and useful than others. I'd put this one as the new bottom on my list beating out performance oil caps. Nothing personal, I just don't see a real benefit.
