Question Really loud fan?

Along with the problem im having in my other post (SCRREEEEEECCCHHH), it seems to me like the fan in front of the engine or something else is way to loud. Like when im driving and i take off from a stoplight and the revvs are gettin high- i dont hear the engine revving really at all, just this loud whiney fan sound. It doesnt sound broken at all but it does seem too loud. even at low rpm's its like this. What do you guys think?

my fan clutch forze on my supra and i could hear the wind from the fan at higher RPM's and there was a lot of drag on the engine, so i got rid of the stock clutch fan and bought an electric fan, around the same price, and more HP!! it wired to runall the time (when running) and so far working very well. i would highly recommend getting rid of the stock fan.

The clutch fan is on the very front of the engine, its the big plastic fan! its real easy to remove, just four nuts and its gone, the fan shroud should be removed also. you'll need to put the nuts back on to hold the pully on but you'll need some washers before the nuts.
make sure if you remove the fan that you buy an electrical fan right away so you wont over heat.
good luck!
