I think I have never bought either of those pieces :)
There is zero issue with the MR2s cooling ability.
The things you want to avoid are shutting the car off after running the turbo hot ... so chill out for your last few miles and let it idle a bit before you park it.
The other issue is "heat soak" of your intercooler.
In that case I would just by a 7.5" SPAL puller fan for the IC ... and if you want to go further, get a 7.5" SPAL psuher fan for the outside of the IC.
That way you get more air flow across it.
atsracing.net sells the SPAL fans.
Talk to Aaron, tell him I sent you :)
