aluminium fan shroud - civic rad setup


Recommended Posts

in order to aid cooling i have been looking at fan shrouds as there are quite a few benefits from it like directing the air more better and cooling the rad better.

i have seen the ones used on the civic dual core rads and i am wondering if anyone has one fitted to there car and could tell me how it differs and notice any gains with it.

heres a quick line to see what they look like

I've pretty much just made exactly that shroud on the cnc machine at work. Havent run it as yet but from all the reading I've done they're of more benefit than not running one as they help draw from the full surface of the radiator.

I think nightspirit ran something similar on his old gt. I can see the theory behind them being more effective when the fans running but I would imagine its white restrictive when driving as its reducing the surface area that air can rush through. Or is that just me?
