I'd agree, but this single image below seems to be counter to that for some reason.

In this F1 design the air gets drawn in, not so sure about the Porsche.

Centrifugal fans can suck or blow, I guess we would have to know more about the specific design the original poster had in mind. He offered no images at all, could be on a wild goose chase again.

All I've done so far is completely confuse myself on the topic.
