Default Turbo

I just put my turbo kit on the other day and we were taking it up and down the road and it started to overheat so we checked a few things and couldn't figure out what was going on anybody have any insight as to what it could be?

yeah i do have a greddy FMIC and we thought that might be restricting air to the radiator causing it to overheat

right. and the heat radiating from the turbo/manifold just adds to the problem.

i would try searching in the f/i forum, that might work.
