500WHP Street Use Capable. Heat soak is a problem of the past.
The Only Fan you need & that we highly recommend
From our own testing, we have found that all other fans simply do not have enough power and air flow/CFM to transport air through the commonly used aftermarket 4" thick side mount intercooler cores. If one places their hand on opposite side of core with fans blowing, one would feel barely if any air moving past the fins, hence why side mount intercoolers heatsoak.
That is until, we found this monster of a fan, which is almost as big as the intercooler core itself. We've never felt more cool air being rushed past the thick intercooler core fins by such brute force. The difference is night and day. Heat soak is now a problem of the past.
Based off of our testing, we doubt natural air flow from MR2 being in motion is able to penetrate effectively either - especially considering how air would have to bend 90 degrees TWICE before it can even reach the core - At that point, your air speed has already dropped off. However, with the help of this behemoth monster of a fan forcing air through the whole core with pure brute power, air can finally penetrate the core in great amounts.
One of our customers is currently tuned and pushing 500+whp on our side mounted intercooler kit with this fan on E85 and 460whp on 91 octane comfortably on the streets. 2.2L 5SGTE stroker, GTX3071R and our CF intercooler pipes. His intake air temperature at 460whp 91 octane was around 100-105F (Very good numbers). His tuner (Peter @ Snap Motorsports in Sacramento) did say that any more HP past 500, that it would start becoming an issue. That same core we're talking about is known to be good up to 350-380hp on weaker fans and that is already considered pushing it at around 135-150F.
This fan requires the use of dedicated wiring harness to properly power it. Stock wiring/relay system will not be adequate. SPAL truly makes the best fans money can buy and we highly recommend it.
-
SPAL branded fans are used on NASCAR, modern supercars, as well as many other high end automotive racing organizations/manufactures. Their motors are fully sealed, dust proof and water proof. Individually balanced for long life and high performance.
-
Our default 9" fan is not a slacker and is also commonly used. it features the same high efficiency straight blade 9" fan design for maximum air flow just like SPAL. Just doesn't move as much air unfortunately
Notes
- We sell authentic SPAL units only
- These only work with our 1991-1998 Toyota MR2 Aftermarket side mount intercooler fan shroud setups. See here
- This listing is just for 1x 9" Spal fan, and an optional dedicated wiring relay harness kit, which is required.
- This fan draws up to around 9-10.5 amps @ 14.4 volts (we tested)
