Default CM Stacker 250MM

Anyone put a 250MM on the side of a CM Stacker? Would this be worth the effort or would it disrupt the front to back airflow too much?

I put a 250mm in the side of my case and it was an easy mod. (look in my gallery) I don't have a stacker though . As far as air flow I made all my other fans blow out and it works pretty good. I would have to say though that it would disrupt the front to back flow.

Which Stacker do you have? I have the old one.

The fan is pretty loud but it cools amazingly without changing the general direction of overall airflow. It has 4 speed settings.
