you shouldnt be overheating. it cools just as efficient. did you bleed the system of all the air and have a good thermostat ?

it seems to overheat after i boost. no i didnt bleed the system.It shoots up all of a sudden. The fisrt time it did coolant burst out of the hose....so im assuming that did it the fisrt time
