Heat Exchanger or E-Fan?

hey guys I have enough money to do one of these mods, for now(I will eventually probably do both) but I just wanted to see what you guy's think would be better to do first. both take some strain off the motor, right?. Is the heat exchanger just for high boosted trucks? thanks

I would do the electric fan first.

The heat exchanger will benifit any truck

hey cyntaxx.

i read some where that you made your electric fan yourself. I want to do this but i would like it to perform aswell as buying a JDM etc. On chuck's website he did one but said it didn't do aswell. was it just because of the size of the fan he used?

thanks guys, I'll do the E-Fan first, then the exchanger when I save up.

Is it worth it to get the a/c on option with the fan? i rarely use my a/c

Shoot me an email at cyntaxx@yahoo.com and I can try to go over most of the details with you. However I did not personally do the install alone...a friend helped out and did most of the work (i watched and cheered him on ). But I can provide you with most of the info needed.
