What problems do you run into........
...........with the radiator when you swap a B16 in a CRX (no specific model of the CRX, but perferably a HF) and then slap a turbo on it. Of course you should swap the radiator when you swap the motor but does the turbo fit? What would be a good aluminum aftermarket radiator and how much would it cost? Is there a problem with room under the hood with a radiator and intercooler in the front of the car? Has anyone put a Type R motor in there CRX, how did that fit?

Spearco, Fluidyne are good rads...they have double wide half panel for turbo application.
if done correctly you wont have a problem with rad and intercooler room. (Cut crossmember)
I shoved an h22 in a crx...it fits..bareley, so a c5 wont have a problem

Keep the stock radiator. The bigger ones from PYR, Fluidyne, etc are just thicker cores that get in the way of the better headers/turbo manifolds!
I'm running a stock radiator with no overheating issues on my 300 HP b16a turbo.
