I too have a question regarding this but my fan is electric... My lower grille is blocked top and 65% on the bottom but I still run the a/c.... Is the aero gains not worth the extra power that the fan and also the condenser are taking? When I switch my a/c on I lose at least half my horsepower and no, I'm not kidding. Should I open the bottom grille more for better fe?
