Default Engine Cooling Question

My radiator hoses get so tight that there is no play in it at all. We changed the water pump out and put diff thermastat in and still blows up like a baloon. Air is getting in the system some how. Has anyone else had this problem ? Anything is helpful

the car is turbo yes .when you pushed it under boost if the coolant over flow fills up over the max and the temp only goes up when you are pushing than it is a head gasket. " BORDER="0">
