so i have been running e fans for some time. but i have been doing some reading and what i read say that a mechanical fan is better for drifting. but i dont want to go back to a clutch type fan. i want a flex type mechanical fan that will fit my ka like the oem one did. any indea? should i stick with what i got?

if it aint broke why fix it?

That is just my thought. I have been told before that electric fans dont account for much of a hp gain...but on the other hand i have also been told that any parasitic drag you can get off your engine the better. I like to keep things simple when and where i can...e fans can be simple...but so can the stock fan and shroud. Have you read the reason why having a clutch type fan is better for drifting? I can not for the life of me think of any bonus to drifting for having one.
