My overflow cap wasn't on as tight as needed - discovered this when steam came from under the hood - granted I was going up a mountain pass but it was a cool day. Tightened it and never had a problem.
the 2.3 does run at high temp so without pressurization I think it can boil pretty easily. The other thing is having the correct anti freeze mix - too concentrated and it cannot transfer heat efficiently.
