jraycut, IAW Reverend the manufacturer of the fan I bought for my FG90R3, the fan will rob approximately 150 RPM from the engine.

very legit question. The temp`s of the cylinders was 20° lower at idle. I have telemetry in my Focke Wulf and the Cylinders cool down a lot quicker in flight after hammering throttle on longer passages. I do however have the engine baffled very well.

The (small) downside is you will be losing about 150 RPM. But for me its worth the cooling effect. Especially on the ground.
