now that i got my 7.......

ok i finally got my FC and i was looking at some things to do for it. the motor is rebuilt with just over 10k miles on it (papers to prove it) it needs to be painted but i can wait until the spring for it. but i want to know what should i do next i was thinking about upgrading the turbo but i want to take care of the fuel set up. he gave me a brand new walbro 255 so i am going to install that next weekend, and i want to get some bigger injectors like 720cc's because i think i am going to go with rtec 1.7. so what is the deal with the e fans? any better then the fan ran by the belt? can any efan do? i hve one from my civic that still works? i only have about 500 bucks left to play with, what should i do with that?

a civic fan will not nearly be enough cooling, if u do use one, pull it from a ford taurus or something of similar size. There are also aftermarket fans u can use but make sure ur alt. can handle the extra load. but either way the stocker is one of the best fans to use, there is really no advantage unless if u want the extra engine bay space
