Default B16 turbo over heating

I got a b16 turbo, and just today after I got off work. I realize my car would over heat when I turn on my ac. What could be the cause for this.

probably to much heat in the engine bay. But first check the norms ie coolant level, presence of air in the coolent, fan, etc..

How close is the down pipe to your oil pan...but first check your coolent level, next check to see if your fan is turning on when it reaches operating temprature. if it doesn't turn on might be your Engine temp sensor, or an air bubble in the termostat housing...
