radiator question

Does anyone run small halfsized radiators? I know honda's have very small radiators, but would they have enough cooling power to cool my miata 1.6l? I would like to clean up my engine bay and getting a new radiator would clean it up alot.
The only reason I ask is because of people having cooling issues with stock radiators. any input is appreciated!
thanks!

lol i realize this is a turbo forum, im working on that aspect right now, im trying to make the most room with the best look possible. and if i can get a halfsized radiator that will cool it properly,then an intercooler can sit next to the radiator and be protected(to a point) insted of behind a flimsy bumper.

This is nothing new. However, I would think I would have issues running a half rad with my a/c blasting, idling in traffic during 100 degree weather. Replacement full size radiators are so cheap now I don't see why it's necessary to try and reinvent the wheel here.
