Doesn't matter. Adding a turbo doesn't change whether a fan needs to pull or push. Air should always be going from the front to rear of the radiator though.

Like Chano said, the most important thing is the cooling itself. If you're running a pusher instead of a puller and it keeps your temps down, then its a good design, or vice versa. I run a puller setup, I have on all of my modded cars and I've never had a cooling issue unless it was somthing I did myself...oh like not bleed the system and run around hot *** Okinawa with only a half full coolant system. Yeah, stupid I know. Good thing the RB20 is a resilient SOB
