Default front mount intercooler questions ???

i recently purchase a jhm front mount intercooler kit for my 2000 audi s4 , the problem is that i decided not to buy the electric fan kit but im having second thoughts about it, also if i install my front mount and then later decide for the fan would i have to take the intercooler apart again to put on the fan???or i can just add the fan???

Maybe, maybe not. Either way, the electric fan kit is not really necessary.

Yeah, you'd need to take it apart and pull out the radiator to do a clean electric fan install. If you live in a warm climate, it is a good idea to have one. You can get away without it. But if you're sitting in the summer time with the A/C on, you'll be glad you threw it in there. It is also good to have if you track the car.

I would go ahead and get the fan. Better safe than sorry IMO.
