Default question for turbo guys

when i sit in my car 97 integra, i have to keep the switch on the climate control left on heat and sometimes run the heat. so my car will not over heat. i saw a thread a while back but can't seem to find it. its hot as ***** in my car is there some kind of way to keep it cool inside. i took of my ac off a while back. i'm gonna get a another radiator fan also. one thing is that if i move the switch on the climate control from hot to cold i notice an increase in my temp. i've searched. help me if you can

sounds like you need a bigger radiator.

Try a colder thermostat first. One that opens up at a lower temp. These should be available from any Kragen, etc.

Sounds like air in the coolant system, did you bleed it?
