Flex-a-lite Twin Fans vs. Passat dual fans(cooling)



heh, I have a manual switch.....

my problem is airflow....I need more of it. I'm in Central Florida, it gets
ass-blasting hot here and when you're in traffic, and you'd normally WANT to
use the AC, you can't because it'll overheat the car.

Now, as Allyn reminded me, it *may* be crud.....but it doesn't really get
hot unless I'm using the AC.


It's just hot-as-balls down here. (Even now).

  i have the B3 passat one and it works pretty good. but it didnt change the
overheating problem. helped a little. if your getting hot, throw in a low
temp fan switch and a low temp thermostat and you will get over half!

    You just need to trim 3" or so off the bottom. I
    bought one from a local yard for $35. You could
    probably get one for even less at the pick and pull.
    Was plenty of cooling for a turbo 16v with a big FMIC
    blocking the radiator
