Default EG/EK radiator in a 90 civic si with a turbo d16a6? how well will it work?

I'm just curious; since the EG/EK radiator is so much smaller than the EF's and having one would allow a lot better routing of charge pipes if it would be worth swapping one out?
Or would it not cool for **** compared to the EF's little single core pos?
The car has no a/c and the condenser was removed and the only thing restricting air flow to the rad. is the Greddy intercooler but even with the stock fan with the shroud chopped to hell it still cools fine if not too good since i have no thermostat.


I also may be throwing a D16Z6 in there soon or possibly a b18c1 if i can find one; if i were to do one of those would i have adequate cooling?
