Situation:
I have a 1g with a 50 trim and all the supporting mods, including two high power fans which i have ran to a switch inside. My car has been running hot ever since the weather has been hot. It runs pretty good at night when it's a little cooler. I gave it a full coolant flush thinking the system may be clogged, but it didn't help. I replaced the thermostat, which also didn't help, so I tried running it with no thermostat, which only made the car take longer to warm up, but it still runs hot. The car has never overheated. I don't know what could be causing this. Any help is appreciated.

P.S. I can't get my car tuned until I can get it to run at normal temperature.
