Could You Use A Brake Duct Cooling Fan And Have It Ducted To Blow More Air Into The Intake? What Would It Do Good Or Bad? Just Thinking Out Loud.

imo it wouldn't work due to the fact that the turbo draws in so much air (cfm) the fan could become a restriction.

more trouble than it will be worth, no benifits, you want more air get a bigger turbo

The "electric supercharger" again...the time you get a fan to move enough air to make a difference you'll be drawing so many amps that the alternator will rob any extra power the blower makes. Its all been discused here before.
