Default Overheating in boost with ac on

I have benn boosted for a few months and i finally got my ac going again recently. Right away my car started overheating when i would have the ac on and drive even somewhat hard. I already replaced my ac condensor and thermostat and also added an additional cooling fan for a total of 3. The car still does the exact same thing as before. I can run it hard all day with no ac and it runs at normal temp but as soon as the ac comes on and i push it just a little it starts over heating. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it.
thanks

What car is this in? What are you doing to keep underhood temps down so far? What radiator are you running?

Its a 94 integra with a b18c5 with lower compression. I installed a performance half radiator thats about 2" thick and installed a fan on each side of the radiator and another on the condensor. I also have a vented hood for what its worth.
