If you have the money to burn power to you.

FYI, I had 1980 Accord with a horizontal crack the length of the radiator and car was not overheating!
My CRX is 18 years old and still has original hoses! I changed coolant twice a year since new and regularly inspected hoses. No problems! I have no deposits in the cooling system at all!
Hey it is a Honda! Have you ever heard of a Honda with an overheating problem?! LOL!
I also installed oil cooler on the CRX and ended up removing it. Cooling system is so efficient that extra cooling creates negative effect on my CRX. Unlike civics from late 90's, CRX radiator runs full width between headlights. ECU increases the rev limit at the right temperature. It would cut me off under well under 7K while properly hot allowed about 7900 rpm.
Now with a chip without rev limiter and Crane Cams ignition set up at 9,500 rpm this sucker screams like superbike in the canyons. My best man is a biker and he gets a kick out of hearing it each time.
