I got a 01' integra gsr turbo'd. I went through three radiators and i'm
goin for my fourth. alot of people are suggesting the heads warped or i
got some gaskets messed up causing vapor lock. on top of that i got an
oil leak from hell but i cant find where it is. sounds like a gasket
problem??????

oil leak have you checked your pcv system?

turbos play hell with them

are your fuel curves right? a little lean can cause massive heat

are you burning up radiators?

or are they corroding?

make sure ALL your engine grounds are in place. galvanic action can eat a radiator so fast its uneal.

well I think I might have figured it out. The top radiator support bracket were loose. when I took the old radiator out, the vanes were seperated from the bottom resevoir. another thing, I've been over looking my dipstick for the oil leek. last night Inoticed the plunger plug part on the top of the dipstick is broken. I guess thats what I get for overlooking the small stuff. I should look at the fuel flow but I don't know how to adjust it. Thanks for the help.
