Default ideas on cooling my 99 EX

Theres pro's and con's to that.

Aluminum radiator would be more than enough to keep a stock motor cool.
Unless your running boost, or a built motor, heat should not be an issue if your waterpump is working correctly.

an upgraded aluminum radiator is always a good idea, especially if you're planning on doing future mods. plus I assume you have 100k on the radiator you have now. So if you are planning on replacing the factory radiator, might as well upgrade.
