Don't bother getting it if you expect a cooling gain driving on the streets. The DME targets coolant temps by varying pump speed and opening the thermostat. So if you get the CSF rad, the temps during street use will be the same. Without track use I'd have a hard time suggesting to someone its a worthwhile upgrade performance wise.
If you just want the best and have a high quality piece on your car, then I can understand that. Additionally if you plan on keeping the car for a while and don't want to worry about plastic coolant fittings breaking thats also a huge bonus. Regarding the drain plug, I found it interferes with intercoolers so its worth getting a new drain bolt that uses an allen socket (so its low profile, the CSF one uses a hex drain bolt which sticks out a lot)
