The unrealized potential of my Acura

My Integra works fine at low acceleration, but at highway speed the engine bay would let out a hissing sound and a jet of steams, so that the car couldn't breach the 70 mph mark. I had the car checked and was told to replace the radiator. I wonder if the rather modest performance of my Integra is not unusual. I looked around for a replacement and the best deal so far is this Overnight Radiator site. Is there any way I could get around this problem? The radiator does not work poorly during low-speed driving and I personally don't think I need to replace it. What should I do?

You need a 2nd opinion then. You don't mention if the car actually overheats. If it does, you can ruin it at hot temps. It might even be two unrelated problems. good luck.
