AC 200 1989

Am I the only one who's replaced a regular fan clutch with the tropical fan clutch and seen absolutely no appreciable difference in air flow at all?

As I understand it, the fluid in the tropical clutch allows the fan to spin at practically the same speed at the shaft in the engine, but there is no "whoosh" sound or insane "helicopter-like" air displacement around the engine. Things mostly are the same. I notice the fan is slightly louder. That's about it. Just wondering if I'm the only one.
