Default push vs. pull fan and radiator

ok I posted a topic on the temperature going up on my car a couple of days ago whenit was hot out over here. I have the original 92 cx radiator and fan in my car with a b16 turbo. tomorrow I'm going to go get another radiator but I just wanted to ask what would be the best combo. as of now I'm probably goingt with a C&R ratiator with a slim rull style fan.
Are the push type fans better??? does anybody have pics or suggestions on how to mount one?? lastly which fan do I get. do I have to specify push type?

If you're turbo you have to set up your fans to push with c&r or fluidyne because there wont be enough clearance with the turbo there.

Yea, that is what I plan on doing. My only concern is that will the pusher far be too big and push enough cool air even though it is behing the IC?
