But your probably going to have a hard time trying to close the bonnet or finding a fan thin enough. But I doubt it will help much.
Simple to do, you just need to know where the pop charger actually draws it's air to figure it out. I know where I would mount it, but it would be pointless except for drag racing applications.

But for overall cooling of the engine it's possible? I know some super cars and mid engine cars have fans on the underside of the bonnet to help in cooling. Didn't think it is possible with the Z33 since there is barely any space between the bonnet and the sway bar or plenum.

Over all cooling of the eng, not really, it would just help the intake from injesting the hot air on the eng bay. Our cars do not have the problem a mid eng car has, we have air flow from the front that quickly flushes the hot air away.
