Default 911 Turbo IC and Fan Questions

Somebody asked me how the air-cooled 911 Turbo's manage cooling with the engine fan and IC setup. Does anyone know how much of the ambient airflow over the rear of the car over the IC gets pulled in to the engine bay from the fan versus how much flows over the IC for convection upwards to facilitate cooling of the charge air?

Thanks, this shows that the massive engine fan helps suck most air in through the IC, but...interestingly, NOT all.
