Re: Intermittent engine light
I have the exact same issue. Orange engine light comes on when car starts to warm up.

Re: help and advice on this mr2 (potentially purchasing on Sun)
Well he says the Speedo dont work, now if that don't work every time you boost it it will go into limp mode as ECU wont get speed signal for more than 3secs. Can be a cheap fix if its just the sender that gone but if its the nylon cog inside the gearbox like mine is its a pretty expensive fix :evil...

Very odd that the winning bidder didn't buy it at £2050 though.

Re: Not Boosting over 7psi
Wastegate may have weakened due to age or actuator stuck in the open position maybe??? I had a similar issue.
You could get a new wastegate but a MBC will sort this out.

Re: Booooooost
Stock is about 0.7 bar a rounds 10psi on a rev1/2, not 100% if that goes for Rev 3 too.
I have Rev 1 with Rev 3 upgrades plus berk intercooler and I run 1bar so about 15 psi.
I have had it turned up to around 17psi though and it was fine,

In which case, in my case....a whole turbo engine with REV 3 upgrades

Re: Standard exhaust and Downpipe vs Aftermarket parts
Whats the top exhaust on your pic of the three together Red? I have one of these sitting in the garage, and had same prob you were saying about the japspeed. Tried to fit it a while back and gave up as to me it seemed to not clear the subframe and also near the flexi seemed far to close to oil sump...

No Turbo...and why is that classic comment from an N/A owner????
Fella you asked you the top 10 mods to a standard MR2
Correct me if I am wrong but wheels would be number 1. Actually, don't correct me cos I know I am right.

The japspeed i had.. was rusty.. yes stainless that rusts.
Wouldn't buy one again.
There are varying grades of stainless steel and the cheaper grades will rust but they can still call it stainless steel.

Re: Top 10 MR2 Turbo Mods
I would have thought wheels was the number 1 mod.
Are there many cars still running standard wheels?
