The only time you will have a cooling issue is when you get the Greddy FMIC. Other than that any aftermarket rad will work fine.

I would have to say the quality and cooling of the AWR radiators are far better than Koyo. I guess testing only proves that.

Thank you all for the opinions. I'm still undesided, there's a lot of choices out there.
