I've got a single 12" Mishimoto puller that seems to work great, so a couple of decent 12" slim fans should do the trick. I wouldn't bother with Spal, last I checked they were very expensive.

Mines wired up to the stock system, so it kicks on when the stock one would have.

Mine are hard wired and constant running.

Re: relocating fan for fmic
Mine uses the factory system for fan control during normal driving. I also have a switch inside the car that allows me to turn them on any time I want (say, idling in traffic, waiting in line for drag racing, or turbo-timer cool-down time). You just put a switch in line with either the AC high-pressure switch or the water temp switch and run the wires inside.
