Better Cooling Solution

Hey guys I live in the south and it gets super hot and super humid. I have an s14 sr20det running 19 lbs of boost and during the fall and winter it does not get hot nor run over 78 degrees Celsius. Since it has been getting hotter. I have noticed that my A/C is not getting as cool as I think it should. I run two cheap ebay electric fans on the front of my radiator. I have bought the original s14 shroud for use with the mechanical fan and am thinking about switching back. I know some people have said the electric fans work best but most professional drifters run OG mechanical fans on their cars. I will continue to use a condenser electric fan wired up to my inside dash so I can cool it off. I need some ideas to take care of this.

Can anyone that runs mechanical fans now with the shroud chime in as to how much better they cool than the electronic ones? I really need to come up with a better cooling solution than what I have and am in need of some help. I am not interested in a big debate on what I run and how I should do something else. I basically want to know from people who have ran electronic fans then switched back to the mechanical / shroud combo and how much better or worse it cooled off the engine.

thank you very much
