Whatever you do, DO NOT BUY a Nyko intercooler for your 360. Myself and many others have had our 360's ruined from that POS. Mine actually melted and fused to the power plug when it failed. Luckily I had a gamestop warranty to replace my 360 outright, but I was still really pissed.
Make sure the 360 has ample breathing room all around and doesn't sit in the sun and you won't need to give it an extra fan.

Wow, I was going to buy one of those but though hey I have a fan why not use that. I'd rather be safe than sorry....would blowing into the xbox be bad, as in pushing the hot air back into it?
