Default Help... engine temp Up and Down after install

Alright, I got my coolant for the turbo from that line underneath the intake manifold. Engine is a b18b 1999. Before, there was a straight line going from big metal tube behind the block all the way to the middle/under section of the intake manifold. I cut that line, routed into the turbo, routed it back to the intake manifold. Me engine temp needle is going all the way to max, going down, up, down up.... it's going crazy.

Is it where I tapped the line from my problem ?

Thanks

umm, did you bleed the cooling system? if there is air in the head the car will overheat, mine did as soon as we pulled onto the street

just drain the bitch and start over... put some anti-freeze in there so it won't boil if you overheat too...

sounds like air in the cooling system, I would bleed it.
