just installed turbo system now running hot!!
I just installed a drag gen 3 turbo kit on my 95 ex with a B16A. When I drive it hard my temp gauge goes up to about 3/4 of the way to the top!! Is this a sign of my engine running lean? i have not yet installed my high flow in line fuel pump. Or do i need a bigger radiator?? Please Help!!

When I had a turbo-system installed on my '86 Fiero V6, it never ran hot, but it did run lean. So lean that at wot it detonated like crazy. When I had it on the dyno it was like the 4th of July in my engine.

is there still enough radiator fluid in the radiator? and also how long do you drive the car under boost? like a couple gears or a couple miles?

I am going to change the radiator fluid tonight (there is fluid but it looks old) and see what happens. I just got the sysem installed and drove it home about 15 miles and would only boost hard through the gears when I hit open roads so not that often.
