Is this more efficient to compensate for the fan delete mod?

usually people add this fan when they do it. When i did the fan delete mod since my fan was broken i installed this instead of putting a new stock one back in.

How did this work? Any problems.

And does this pull(push) the air into the radiator? Any pics installed.

what i did was had it mounted infront of the radiator pushing air through it. Then i hooked it up to a switch, so i can turn it on whenever i want. Car never overheated or went above middle with it.

i dont think i have pics of it installed but i will look for some.

basically, i had one wire go to a 12v power source under the hood. Theres one right next to the fuse box. then i had another one going to a ground. Then had a relay that i wired up into that to switch the fan on and off. I could include it with the fan for whoever buys it.

Would I be able to install this on the inside portion of the radiator? (between the engine and radiator). I am asking because I want to leave my stock aux fan on the front and use this to take place of the fan/fanclutch.

yeah it will fit on the inside portion of the radiator if you dont have the engine fan anymore aka fan delete mod.

Im interested. I have a few questions though. First, can this be used as a pusher and puller fan?
and, wouldnt I need a puller fan with fan delete?

you should be able to reverse the spin of the fan, by reversing the polarity of the fan.... positive/negative to negative/positive...

my friend and I did this with a Zionsville radiator we installed in his 97 s/c 328is.... put two thin line fans on the radiator, and then figured out we had to reverse polarity to get the fans to pull air through radiator...
