Fan for M2 Medium IC?

What's a good fan to use on the M2 Medium IC? Prefer something with minimum modification to attach it. Also, should it stay on all the time, wire it to a switch, wire it to a temp activated switch, or just to the radiator fan wires?

Any pics you have would be cool too.

Thanks
Hoody

I'm sorry I don't know the answer to your question ... But when you installed your M2 Medium IC did you have to remove your Air Pump ... M2s site says you don't but RX7Store.net says you do ... Did you??

Sorry, but I haven't installed it yet. I don't think you do though.

Try Summit Racing or SPAL or Permacool.

Try the SPAL fan. Max cooper has a nice photo on his site:

I know it's sometimes a pain to get info from M2, but I've seen one of their ic installations where a fan was installed along with the ic. They should be able to tell you.

Also, no need to remove the airpump. I've had mine for my ic and airpump together for many years.

Jason's website has the info backwards between the M2 large and M2 medium SMICs. The large requires clearing out everything to make room, the medium will work with the airpump and stock-size battery.

I just installed a ASP Large and this what I ordered.

My IC core measures 17"x12"x3.5".

They said it would fit. 12" 1630CFM electric pull fan.
