Just be aware that if you do use a del sol radiator, it will not clear the hood unless you tilt/angle the radiator.

I run a DA radiator. Compared to stock the DA has more fins per inch (more effective surface area) and it's aluminum (better heat transfer). The civic radiator is single core and the DA is dual core. My DA radiator dropped in. A slim fan is recommended but you can mod the stock fan to clear the header.
