This one of the 3 main reasons you won't see me running any boost.

      I also agree about the potential for hot spots in the radiator. That was my primary concern about sticking to this C7 fan. Luckily my CTS is in the intake base so the reading is the engine water temperature, not the radiator. Even though I likely have hotter spots in the radiator, the overall result is exactly what I wanted - a lower average engine temp.



      For any of you reading this and thinking about the same thing or dealing with similar issues, yes, I agree that the bigger radiator cores most of us have would be perfect for the CTS-V fan. If I was starting this project over that is what I would buy. Then call Andrew and hire him to program it along with doing your Holley EFI tuning!
      Yeah its for sure expensive. Thats why I bought a CTS-V fan and modified it and made my own upper shroud. I'm running boost, but I'm running a oil cooler for a heat exchanger ducted off the side so there is nothing blocking my condenser and radiator.

      I think if you build a box for your radiator and modify your fan housing you should have more then enough fan to keep it cool. The trick is to get it sealed off so it doesn't suck air from around the radiator instead of through it.
