Chris,
You don't need a custom fan shroud to run the 200q radiator fan. The
RS2 used that fan, and believe it or not that RS2 fan shroud is a good
US number (893 121 207 H), available at your friendly Audi dealer. You
WILL need to upgrade the wiring for the fan, including the relays and
fan resistor. You can get those parts from any 5k or 200.
