really no point mate you could never get the fans to pull through as much air as driving gives them....

LEXUS IS200 - The most fun car to go sideways
No need mate, in Greece the climate is very very hot especially in summer time and believe there is no need to fit fans for the intercoolers or oil cooler. Better option to protect your engine is to use an oil cooler, an air diversion panel to drive the air towards the radiator, a water injection kit (aquamist, snow performance), water spray on your intercooler, ACR cooling fins

Why would you need it in traffic though ? It just means that the air will be hotter going into your engine when you're crawling in traffic, but that's not going to be a performance issue if you're going slowly anyway.
As long as your oil temperature isn't going too high (e.g. maybe an oil cooler will help if you're in very hot temperatures - though I never found my own oil to go too high when in traffic when it's hot) then you should be ok.
