Overheating
This is for all the threads I see each day about overheating! If your car is over heating the #1 cause is air in the system. If you have recently drained and refilled the system then this is almost certainly the answer. Some cars have bleeder valves located near the upper coolant line going into the head. Fill the radiator until coolant starts to pour out of the open bleeder then tighten it up. Cars without this bleeder valve can pull the radiator cap off and warm the car up until coolant reaches the very top of the radiator neck. In either case I le to re bleed the system again after a few miles to make sure the entire system is fully circulated. Some tips include leaving the cabin heater on full to allow full coolant circulation and filling the overfill bottle to its "max" level in-case the system needs to draw in more coolant. http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=140774 Other common causes are a bad thermostat, radiator fan isn't kicking on or is inadequate. And in the most extreme case, a bad head gasket will cause overheating as super hot combustion chamber gases are super heating the coolant.

Here is a pretty cool writeup explaining turbocharging, supercharging and basic engine operation. Puts things in laymans terms with nice illustrations as well and a brief history of the turbocharger.
