Re: Help Me Please
Are you sure you don't have a big air bubble in the cooling system? Also, not to be a dick or anything, but how do you know for sure that you are overheating? There are 2 temp sending units on the thermostat housing (one feeds the ECU and one feeds the stock gauge). If you are going by the stock gauge, maybe your sensor is bad (mine went and was telling the ECU that my coolant was -20). Do you have a logger that you can check the ECU sending unit?

Re: Help Me Please
another thing that could be happening is the radiator being full of something check the front of the radiator make sure you didnt suck something up into the radiator fins especially if it is overheating at idle

Re: Help Me Please
did you make sure the head gasket is on the right way... its pretty easy to put it on upside down. that right there could allow the exhaust gasses to heat the water almost immeadiatly apon start up either that or not properly torqued down head bolts...
