Not a Gotts mod

[Rockclutch]

Happy New Year folks!

So in the spirit of extreme geeking, I'm planning to install a fan to draw air from the fender hole previously occupied by the uber restricted stock intake tube to bring additional cool air to the K&N.

On hot days it sucks in all the hot engine compartment air so I wanna see if this will help.

Fan is an 120MM aluminum waterproof 12v server (computer) fan module moving 120 CFM.
Fender opening is about 80mm so the standard 120 to 80mm adapter should be ok.
This will be wired to a switch in the cabin for on demand use.

It's all about 25 bucks for the parts.

Will post pics once installed, but curious to know if anyone else has tried a similar mod.

I'd really like to hear your opinions or suggestions.

Thanks

So guessing you've never heard of the electric supercharger? You'e pretty much doing the exact opposite of that

On YouTube, MightyCarMods did dyno tests to prove putting a fan outside or inside the intake did absolutely nothing in means of power gains or cooler operation temps... you're Just adding weight and electrical draw on your truck

Hi Habb,

Thanks for the feedback.
I'm not looking to do anything here but pull cooler air into the area of the filter, nothing else.

No, I had not heard of that, but lol. [emoji41] Those dudes are funny AF.

Could very well be a waste of time...but lots of fun things are.

Some people have time and money to burn or waste.

I really ope this is a joke...

Looks like it'll restrict the flow of air more than anything...

Let us know how it works buddy
