Hondata is great system (bang for the buck).
And your stock radiator should be fine.
The del sol radiator (only if it's a duel core) would be better, but you should be fine with your stock ex radiator.

you think 450cc injectors will be enough to run 18 lbs of boost?

no you're gonna need bigger injectors unless you increase fuel pressure but i wouldn't recommend that...

450 should be fine for 9psi as long as your fuel setup is up to par
