Adding a fan to my intercooler
Has anyone added a fan to their intercooler? What would be the best way if wanted?
1)on top and blowing? 2)on top and sucking? 3) underneath and blowing? 4)underneath and sucking? I just don't want to run out of air or disturb the air flow if you know what I mean.

Take a look at the thread above: "Boost loss when hot"

If you are going to do it, the logical answer is on top, blowing - you have room to fit it there and the airflow is in right direction.

When the cars moving, my intake temps cool off pretty fast when I get off the boost so it seems like there's good air flow without a fan.

Which, apparently, takes about 10HP. That would be a pretty substantial 12V motor. So why not just make sure your engine bay seals are good like the factory intended, shroud/seal the I/C like the factory intended and use the very large fan you already have?
