Copper as an element transfers heat more. Aluminum is much lighter. In DD b18b it really doesn't matter at all. I went with aluminum since mishimoto is a well known company with a lifetime warranty. Just get whatever's cheaper if its just a DD

I would say aluminum, just because it's usually cheaper and it disperses heat more easily and quickly.

really the important thing is the core and how many passes it makes. a good name and thicker radiator will cool more
