RE: Over heating??
He means that the thermostat may be stuck closed and not allowing coolant to flow thru the engine. Since the 'coolant' light is on then you are probably low on coolant in the radiator top tank. Add a good coolant/water mixture a make sure the system is completely full. There is an air bleed screw on the side of the radiator top tank where the upper hose connects that will allow you to bleed air out of the radiator. Fill with coolant untill coolant runs out of the air bleed screw and then top up the rest of the way. You also said it just leaks out. Where is coolant leaking from or can you tell?? Low coolant will also cause it to overheat as well as a thermostat.

My water sysem is fine.. i have a new water pump... i refill my whole radiator and i even bled it.. and when u drive it hard it seems like the water system or engine cant hold the water pressure when it heats up and the water just overflows the reservoir... a buddy of mine told me that my engine maybe blown but im not sure.. i need a second opinion....

Well the leak is most likely the problem, take a good look at all the hoses and make sure that they are still clamped on well and that there are no cracks or deformities in the hoses. Then adress the radiator. Cooling systems can be frustrating to work with but good luck with everything.
(Also no need ot replace the thermostat unless problems continue with the leak fixed)
