I just installed the greddy turbo on my 93 civic and when i drive the car hard it starts to overheat. What do you think could be the problem? Should i replace my termostat? if i do, should i replace it w/ one thats a higher temp. rating or lower?
Thanks

By the way when the car starts to overheat theres a smell coming from the exhaust or the motor. I can't really explain the smell, my friend said it smelled like ammonia. Could it be coolant? Does that mean it's the head gasket? Crap...what are the signs for a blown head gasket and how much do you think a shop would charge to install one? Thanks

 

i would try the head gasket.
not sure on the cost to replace. depends on where u go

 

Radiator could be clogged. Friend had the same problem, replaced it with another one and it worked fine.

Does your radiator reservoir bubble? if so then that could be it.
