Hi everyone

I got some ideas that I have been playing around with.  I would like to kno=
w how rediculus they sound?

First:

I been thinking of adding a fan ( maybe two) to my intercooler.  I was also=
 thinking of having it thermostatically controlled. I have done the researc=
h, and I have found the parts needed to do this but is it a rediculus idea?

It could be a cheap allternative to larger intercooler and a nice solution =
to a lack of space?

Second:

I am thinking of adding a tranny cooler.
Models I should consider?


I have a coupe quattro 4:11 ratio speed tranny.
If all goes to plan I like to be in the 350+hp rage by next april.  Will th=
e 7a tranny handle this?

Clutch assembly:
Stock flywheel
200 3b sach sport pressure plate
modified S4/RS4 clutch disc

Opinions appreciated.

If your curious Some fan possibilities: http://www.spal-usa.com/html/pgtabl=
el.htm

Theromostat possibility: http://www.thermtrol.com/tpseries.htm

As quoted from their site: "The TS Series design incorporates a changeover =
thermal switch and an auxiliary switch useful for fan control or alarm sign=
al"

BTW: I have seen the water spray mods, But I thought this would be a much b=
etter solution?

I could picture a theromostatically controled dual 6 inch fans

Could you?

Thanks
Josh
