MXLR Turbo Motor Fan 30mm | 40mm

New from Germany’s MXLR comes these 30mm and 40mm Turbo Motor Fans built to deliver maximum airflow and the best possible cooling for today’s highly stressed motors. Together with their separately available MXLR Fan Booster, the combo lifts your receiver voltage to 8V, the Turbo Motor Fan turns that into serious airflow – less fading, more consistency, more speed over the full run time. Both fans run on double ball bearings for smooth, reliable operation and a long lifespan. Attention has been paid to the fan wiring also, the Turbo Motor Fans coming with soft black silicone wire that routes cleanly through your car instead of fighting you at every corner. The wire on the fan itself is approx. 43mm long and ends in a small black male JR connector. An extension wire of approx. 128mm is included in the set, so you can reach whatever mounting position your chassis layout asks for.
