So I was out tuning the car last night, brought it in to the driveway and was idling, cooling it down and looking at my idle AFR, when all of a sudden my fan just decides its had enough. I have not taken it off yet to figure out what exactly happened, but I can tell it's gone. I want to go ahead and replace it with something slimmer (for more room for my turbo setup) and better, if possible.
Questions are; What aftermarket fan is a good replacement, and how do I need to wire it in? Is the main wire that feeds the fan a switched 12V circuit that I can just splice into, or is it more complicated than that? If it weren't for wanting to keep the ECU controlled fan I'd just wire one up on a switch or with a fan controller or something. So what would be best in my situation? I need something as slim as possible.
Also, my buddy has a fan off a 90's Taurus that moves 4300CFM that I can get cheap. Would this work well, or should I stay away? What is the CFM rating for the stock fan, and how many amps does it pull?
