I'm still overheating!!

I put spacers on the hood
Removed the thermastat " MAP recomended it "
Bought a mishimoto radiator and cap
running mostly water and some coolent
have 2 mishimoto 12 inch slim fans running at all times
REMOVED A/C
Put a heat sheild on my manifold and turbo

I had a 180 thermastat in there before I removed it, All of this has been happening since I got it back from map and I dont know what else i could do.... I think it could be my water pump because I will let the car run for 20 min at idle with a funnel and a radiator cap with a hole cut into it to suck in when needed and nothing, but when I turn the car off it bubbles and sucks some in.... the I do it again but at the end it doesnt suck any in... next step I put the cap on and move my car like 25ft then look again and my hose's are callapsed!! what could this be?

Any help would be greatly appreciated
