Honda OEM D16Y8 gasket
ARP head studs
ACL rod bearings
ARP rod bolts
Hondata intake manifold gasket
Wiseco piston rings
MAYBE B18A/B18B rods
...more possibly, gonna do everything myself again

My fuel setup won't change:
DSM 450cc injectors with Honda OEM resistor box
Apexi VAFC
Walbro 255lph high pressure in-tank fuel pump

So are you getting a new intercooler to replace the one you rigged up with the fan? If not, can I make a suggestion? That fan is not going to do anything for you. You need to seal the air gap between the intercooler and the fan or it's not going to go through the intercooler at all. This is the same reason they usually suck air through radiators instead of trying to push it through with a fan. Maybe you could make an air ram for it instead if you are going to keep it. Just my $.02.

I *was* going to mount the fan on the intercooler itself because it fits on the core like it was made for it. However, I didn't think that was good for it. You say that it is. I don't doubt you, but can you tell me why?
