what are you using for tuning ?
did you try using the thermostat ?
do you know your AFR's an/or EGT's ?

tony413

do you have a picture of the set-up ? your rad may need to be further away from the turbine

head gasket leak

francia661

Agreed........head gasket.......if your resavor bubbles b4 it overheats then you have hg problem......and you should put the thermostat back on.......the coolant is not absorbing heat if the water keeps flowing......

beastsohc

new headgasket new arp head studs

beastsohc

it bubbles only at very hot temps. thanks for the input. this is really triping me out

boost ben

When it goes up does it go up gradually, or get to a cretin point and shoot up?

tony413

put some fluorsence(sp) dye in your coolant and check for leaks

Mr.Death

Search the overheating threads. They are a plenty! This is what you will find, add a block off plate to re driect air flow to the rad, Get a shrouded fan, make sure fan is blowing in correct direction, add a thermostst, add water wetter, bleed coolant properly.

beastsohc

it goes up gradually....

thanks mr.death ill check it out

importheaven

you need some heat shielding... that turbo and dp right next to your radiator get really hot and radiate a lot of heat...

beastsohc

problem solved it was a cloged rad...
