yeah, very obstructive, wind cant go throught there too easily, and im sure they dont quite mov the amount of air thats needed for the intercooler, but neat idea non the less

I was thinking what if you wire a couple of fans into the passenger compartment of your car. You can set them to run in your car from the battery on those really hot days and it would help a bit, not a lot but a bit anyway. I've always found that moving air is slightly cooler then still air.

I wouldn't mind mounting a few in strategic locations around my cube at work - like pointed right at my face.

The lady I work with keeps it pretty warm in my part of the building...

moving hot air around...not gonna do much.

I've used power supply fans to vent a cabinet with a computer in it before.

Those fans on the car won't do anything to it.
