stock is fine.... for certain amount of boost.... i say.. a good synthetic oil and good fan switch along with a good thermostate will work fine .. im in the process myself on doing that...got myself a spoon thermostat and mugen switch..

Since im running a Equal length manifold the turbo was to close to the radiator. So i bought a Civic Fluidyne radiator, moved the radiator mounts to support the new radiator. Now i have a slim fan in front of the Rd. and no where near the turbo. its a pretty good setup if u have a lil time.

stock ITR radiator with stock fan and colder Jackson racing thermostate. Never have any overheating problems, even on the track driving 1/2 hour with 1.2 Bar of boost. The needle stays pretty steady at 1-2 lines befor center line.

I was using my stock radiator w/ slim line fans wired as pushers up until Friday night. Then @ the drag strip sitting in the staging lanes the upper end tank exploded sending coolant everywhere.
So now I have a stock SOHC civic radiator in my engine bay that is just rigged in. Going to weld in a new mount this week and convert to that for good. At least then when I can make the switch to a full race mani down the line I'll be ready.

When I was NA I had two OEM take a crap on me because of the crappy plastic upper tanks. I love my C&R!!

does the c&r radiator for the integra take up a majority of the bumper like the stock one does or is it a small one that is positioned to the side?

I saw a sweet C&R full teg sized radiator that had an oil cooler built in, but it looked way too thick to use on a turboed teg. A DC 4-1 header barely cleared it in the picture I saw. Are there any smaller radiators that are high quality and include an oil cooler, and will work with a turbo setup in a teg? I just figure it would be cleaner and possibly cheaper to go with a combo setup if possible....
