overheating

It ended up thankfully being the thermostat. I had to abort the simple job of doing it myself since the one torx bolt stripped when attempting to open it up. It looked like it was aluminum and due to the cold day I attempted became brittle. I didnt even apply hardly any pressure. Anyways took it to the indy shop and let them replace the bolt. All in all 1 hour labour and 1 thermostat.
Now I can keep my windows up so I dont cook trying to keep the engine from overheating.

Thanks for the help everyone!
