Drax, that CFM sucks. It's not the CFM though, its the shroud that makes the fans effective.

well, now that summer is here, i am nervously watching my water temperatures on the scan guage. it can heat up if i'm going to slow in traffic. saw temps up to 212 degrees before i lowered them by turning up the heater and blowing the fans to tha max. glad i can have the windows down.

well, i have the TRD thermostat, so i should run cooler, but i just worry, don't want to boil over in traffic. i'll have to ask p-tuning i guess what they say. maybe get a custom radiator shroud and fans if it seems bad.

^^ I usually see heating issues on watercooled turbo on a slow traffic, long idle scenario.. Is your turbo water cooled?

fans in front of the condenser you should set as pushers.. Switching direction of air flow you can do by changing the polarity of your power wire and in some fans requires you to flip the fan blades. Some fans though are exclusively pushers or pullers
