    BBPT Uprated Perc Fan

    As the title suggests did BB performance really make an uprated perc fan? If they did how could i tell?
    Need help as lad i know is selling one he recons is the above. Has a silver label (not orange) with ren part on it and looks the same as any other pf, so personally i think hes talkin s**t.
    But i may be wrong.

    There is a larger fan unit than the normal one which is found originally on the renault 5 gt turbo. As for who sold it im not entirly sure but a local member has one.

    Apparently it's the fan from a Renault Safrane.

    If you check the part number with a Renault dealer they might have it listed.

    So does the larger fan offer any benefits over the standard sized one? or is it just a part off another renault sold by many a so called "tuner" as there own "uprated" item?

    Ive got a fully working perc fan fitted at the moment so no probs there. Just thought he was trying to pass a standard one off as something it isnt.

    Hi modified a perc fan some time ago by removing the bushes and fitting stainless bearings. A pig to fit the bearings but the fan then spun up like a turbo and had a furious blow on the carb.
