1991 300ZXTT Electric Fan and Exhaust

I recently purchased a 1991 300ZX Twin Turbo 5 Speed in rough condition. It has problems over heating and I am currently changing out the parts that have obviously gone bad. One of my questions is about Electric fans in regards to what kinds I should look into (preferably with built in thermostat and possibly a resemblance of a fan shroud) with maybe some consideration into costs. I was reading other posts about just keeping the clutch fan however the posts were all for N/A's and it stated that they have a lot of suction power which could be bad in dusty areas (I live in Phoenix).

Also I was looking into purchasing a Specialty Z exhaust, I like the sound and appearance a little more then the HKS although I still may consider changing my mind. I was wondering however for the Twin Turbo if a 3" full exhaust would be the most beneficial for the current output, I intend on doing performance mods but potentially not for awhile depending on my budget.

Any input will be greatly appreciated.

Read that.. I'd go with the stock fan. But if you are stuck on electric then it's got info in there about it also..

If its overheating theres a reason for it, find the problem and fix it, dont band aid it. also it has been proven countless times that an electric fan on a z32 thats going to be driven hard wont cut it, unless you get something into the 3500+ CFM fans, with a sealed air box and sealed fan shroud.
