What makes you think it's not the thermostat?
Waterpump maybe? Has yours been repalced with a nice metal one yet? Possible blockage with bits of the old plastic one?

Lol ...after a late night. I am suck on the m4 west bound waiting for a tow.
Anyways, The beast is over heating but the water level is with in range. I would think my thermostat is busted, my entire set of coolant hoses with new g12+ is only 2 months old. It has been working beautifully up until now.
What else could it be guys? Any thoughts ?

Well the water temp reached on 110'C with the fan spinning crazy. water pump would have been my next thought. I am hoping it is easy thermostat problem. If so, should I take out the thermostat and leave it idle to see if it over heats?

Progress... It is definately a blockage, water is boiling with hot upper radiator host and stone cold lower radiator hose.
I have my money on the thermostat. Hopefully I have answered my own question.
