[QUOTE="68_GT, post: 8652437, member: 73259"] has your car ever overheated ? wondered since you have an aftermarket radiator. Kinda sounds like you have a bad head gasket. My 00 GT gave up a headgasket after overheating when the stock radiator went out and it began spewing coolant from the rad cap. Try and leave the rad cap loose so the system doesn't pressurize and see if it wil hold the hot coolant in mine did and I drove it like that for a few thousand miles with a slight miss until I had the engine rebuilt :( if your car gets too hot it will pull a lot of timing and you can feel a major reduction in power. Maybe even going into limp mode. Not sure if the ECU will open the boost bypass under those circumstances ?? [/QUOTE]
