group buy on 16" 2400cfm electronic fan

[Jakey]

is cmf how fast they spin?
CFM means cubic feet per minute, it is unit of volumetric flow rate.

Stock fans have a nice shroud which acts much better at cooling the entire core versus just where the fan sits... like on these, so CFM does not apply.

shroud: | sh roud| noun
a length of cloth or an enveloping garment in which a dead person is wrapped for burial : he was buried in a linen shroud.

^So what I think your saying is that stock fans are better than slim fans because they have larger angled and overall bigger fans.

And thanks jakey, I follow now.

CFM does still apply to a stock fan. For a given CFM a stock fan is better though. If the stock CFM is 600 cfm (guessing), it is not going to keep up with a 1200 cfm slim line. Most bigger turbo's require a slim line, that is why most people use them.

Wiki-

Other specific usages of the term "shroud" include: Chimney Shrouds:A metal cover to hide the spark arrester of a fireplace.

Im refering to the cover that covers over the fan so that it sucks air from the entire radiator not just the circular path the fan covers on the radiator.

^Gotcha. I just thought my mac dictionary def was funny

I'm interested in this. Will it fit on a stock 1g radiator?

[jhaan_dude]

with a little croping it would fit a 1g, the problem with shroud fans on the stock ones is that they overheat and melt the fan blades, i like to mount them in front to force the air across the radiator, this also makes more room to put front mount piping on and a bigger turbo, it just makes more sense! like i said you can call or email me with your requests and when i get enough i will put in the order, as for fitting it wont be a problem.
