IAT's down 50 degrees in hot city driving
Installed this in my wheel well right side behind bumper along with an oil catch can. Keeps that burning hot oil out of my intake. H/E is stock on CL65 AMG but not on CL55. City driving my avg was a problematic 160-170 F degrees without it and now after with 82* degrees F ambient I was averaging 111F to 120 F city driving.
Wired it to ignition ON for the fan. It's really powerful.

I'll try to take some pics of my setup now when the bumper is off next time. Not sure about the part number but I got it dirt cheap on ebay. tbal I think you guys have a oil cooler with a fan on it in that area

I do see a fan mounted in the passenger wheel well behind fog lamp. Just grab a flashlight and look thru fog grille.
My Goal is to stack all of these improvements together little by little. I am also adding a certain kind of heat sink on top of the supercharger with remote fins behind fan. Helps decipate heat more by helping OEM waffle heat sinks work more effecitenly. Bolts onto top supercharge mount points. Logging before and after temps to make sure it works.
Thanks for sharing and more detail please!
