Default Cooling Sleeved B20 Turbo Block

Currently running T3/T4 B20/VTEC. No cooling issues with stock Si radiator and 160 deg. thermostat. When sleeved will I need to run a 2" aluminum radiator to keep the engine cool or will the Si rad still be enough? Anyone have direct experience with this upgrade and then a cooling problem? Thoughts?

Thanks in advance...

I've heard of people using an electric water pump. What's the scoop? (ie; remove thermostat and pump always working???) Where does it get installed?

Thanks...
