Edmonton,
Ok Guys, first of all thanks for the all the help. I have swapped my 7 bolt out of my 1g talon and put in a brand new 6 Bolt Ported head, lots of mods engine. First thing to tell is I have a 16g Turbo. I have put about 500 kilomteres on the engine rebuild and it drives great. Now, I think I am hitting fuel cut with the new turbo. Never experienced it before, but it is like hitting a brick wall at about 5000 rpm. The car just Stops LOL. But yeah, gotta upgrade my injectors and whatnot first, I am also in the middle of installing a boost guage to read my boost more accurately, but I think i am going to add a mannual boost controller to turn it down. Anyway, all advice is appreciated on anything, but the main reason I am posting this forum is because since the 6 bolt swap, I find is in intreasingly harder to keep my engine temperature down. I start it and let it sit for 3 minutes and it is up to operating temperature, if I give her some gas, she heats up really fast and easily. What is the most effecient mod to cool my engine down the most. Also what is the easiest way to turn down my boost until I get the bigger injectors to prevent fuel cut and damage to my engine. Also does fuel cut stop my engine from damaging itself. Thanks a bunch guys

Well to not hit fuel cut just run a vacuum line straight to your wastegate, then your car wont go above whatever spring is in your wastegate. And as far as cooling you might need a new radiator or get some slimline fans, do you have a front mount thats blocking your radiator?
