what if i put a cooling fan under the inside of the hood direcly above the turbo so it will blow alot of air right on the turbo keeping it a little cooler what do you guys think?

I don't think that's necessary and I think there would be clearance issues. You could always wires your two front fans to come on all the time if you want.

you would also have to cut a hole in your hood, try taking a box fan and putting it against a wall.

If you want to cool the turbo get a w-hood or something like that

the gain you'd get from this(since it would be so minimal), you'd probably lose due to the extra pull on the alternator.

Just like those electric supercharger things. They do blow air into the motor, but they suck so much power from the alternator that it cancels out the added benefit of the extra air going in.

...Raizins' modified buddy club front end. He has the extra opening between his headlights which I'm guessing blows right at the Turbo when his car is in motion. Besides that he has the additional opened up vents on his hood. I would take my time and energy to work on some vents like that instead

anyone know the color wires on the harnesses for the fans to wire them so that they both turn on at the same time? don't want them on all the time, just when the cooling fan turns on i want the A/C fan to turn on at the same time. would this make the A/C compressor turn on though? A/C takes so much power. if i had a multimeter this would be easy.

btw: i do have vents over my turbo and intake. if you look under your hood (mine is fiberglass) there are braces, between these braces are 2 spots right over your turbo and one over your intake. i used these with black mesh grill.
