Default Aftermarket cooling fans?

Anyone make cooling fans that cool better than the stock ones? Or are the stock fans sufficient enough?

The fans aren't bad, the radiator itself is too skinny.

I got a pair of SPAL fans which I gather are supposed
to be better but I have nothing quantitative for that.
Still not installed.

Do not neglect the cleaning of condenser and radiator,
you can catch a whole lot of crap in there over time
and that is going to fight the fan no matter how good
it might be. A pretty astounding amount of fine trash
came out of mine.
