Over Heating?

Whenever i drive my car and use the turbos a few times (10)my car won't over heat but what will happen is that the innertube from the second radior cap,The one that says do not remove, keeps flying out. I put clamps on it but it will just pop somewhere else. My friends say i need 2 change my therostat. Any suggetions? But if i don't use my turbos at all or a litle everything is fine.

Innertube?? Do you mean gasket? I guess you do. Anyway it sounds like your AST isn't releasing the extra pressure that builds up as the car warms up. Something could be clogged like maybe a kinked hose from the AST to the overflow tank. It's hard to tell with your description though. One thing is for sure though. With these cars you should not patch a problem by "putting clamps on it" or whatever other meathods you might feel like using. You should always find the cause and cure that instead. This will prevent things like blown motors and the such.
