   just relised you can get Twin fan cooling for VTS instead of just the single one!
   
   will this help? sounds like a stupid question really but was just wondering if it would be better to run a twin fan

   you wont need twin fan unless you're running a highly modified car and sitting in traffic a lot.
   
   you can just buy another fan to put in the vts housing and run that in parallel - or run it from a switch on the dash if your coolant is gettinga bit warm

   ive just recently got 2 fans for 75 odd quid - one linked into temperature switch, the other switched on the dash - didnt bother with the fan housing, just mounted it to the front.

   I have a VTR and if i was to fit a second fan would it be possible to fit at the front of the rad. but then turn the wires round so that it works in reverse.
   Will this work?

   one at the front and one at the rear so that ones sucking the air and ones blowing should be good yes ?

    Are the hoses the same or would you need to change all that aswell?

    i am guessing that a fan infront of a radiator will suck and a fan behind will blow?
