Performance Radiator

[kaison]

This is gonna be my first time getting a performance aluminum radiator.
I was wondering which radiator manufacturer would be the best for cooling down an engine.
Would it be the Mishimoto performance, Mishimoto X-line, Blackworks, Koyo R, Koyo S, Koyo V, Hybrid racing, Megan racing, or the Yonaka?
Keep in mind I want the most efficient in cooling down an engine.
-Thanks in advance
My car is civic si 2000

Edit: If a good performance manufacter was not listed please tell me.

Why exactly do you need a performance radiator? Having one that cools too much can be almost as bad for your engine as having one that doesnt cool enough. That being said I have the simple mishimoto 92-00 civic performance radiator I bought when I did my GSR swap. It cools extremely well and it takes a couple min of driving before my car even gets up to temp in the morning, and I'm in California not somewhere freezing. If your not doing some hardcore racing with a fully built or high boost engine, you definitely don't need anything bigger than The basic mishimoto radiator, or even the stock Si radiator..

I agree with juice.

Mishimoto is the way to go. I have one in my EJ1 and if the CXracing in my DC5 ever goes out i'll put one in it too. Their warranty says even if you wreck your car they will warranty it and still fix it. How can you go wrong.
