Post by fahad1417 »

Hi all, Iv got a rev2 turbo and really want one of them f40 engine lids, however that means losing the fans on the engine lid. Yes or No?

Fans would be the least of the issues, water ingress is more of a problem.

would need to find some way of protecting the electrics from rain unless it's a dray day only car and lives in a garage.

sorry thinking of the 355 engine cover, f40 a few people have them. no fans isn't going to be an issue. water would only be a problem depending on the quality of the cover you are looking at and the fitment.

I still run a turbo engine cover and inspection panels under my F40 cover

So you could run a cover with fans in if you wanted
