Angry Damn Overheating

Temp gauge shoots up from 'O' to 'L' In about 5-10 Seconds When the engine is beeing reved. If your in top gear your can drive it at on the speed limiter and the temp wont move, but slow down and drop back to 3rd and hold speed temp shoots up until you back off then its down in a couple of seconds.

I can replicate this Fault with the car in nuetral and hold the revs at about 4000 rpm and about ten seconds, then the temp will move up to 'M' - 'L' in about 2 Seconds.

this has only hapend since servicing the cooling system about 6 weeks ago,

All up ive changed coolant, top & bottom hoses, high flow thermotsat, pressure cap, removed radiator and flushed, blown out radiator & A/C condensor with compressed air while radiator removed, checked both fans on full speed,

And none of these things have made any difference, Help Needed?
