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

I have 18's but you have to have a stupidly low profile tyre on front. When I buy new wheels though I will go down to 17's so I can get a wider tyre on the rear. 16's deffo best for handling though.

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.

I have the instructions from Wolfie for getting the lenses out. Can email them over.

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.

Same

I bought a rev2 to start with, moving onto a rev3. Learnt everything with it and it never let me down. I've nothing against them as that's exactly what I did with my first mk2 turbo! :) :thumleft: ... I have atot of love for the rev1/2 .. there great cars can be had for peanuts .. and a ct20b and a...

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,

Fair enough buddy.

I think maybe you meant engine/performance mods??

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

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...

It's a rev 5 NA with a rev1 turbo engine. Peter Gidden did the conversion.

Don;t worry Craig....think we've lost him

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.

I would have thought wheels was the number 1 mod.

Are there many cars still running standard wheels?

I could only see the car in the mirrors of my bike so not sure what Rev ect it was.

On on Tuesday 29th about 5pm

Ah right...I was on my way to a Japanese meeting over at Throckmorton airfield. There were a few MR2's drag racing. Was a good afternoon.

Did I see you pulling off Shell petrol station on Sunday???
