Alternator help
Yep, you should have the batt light ON with IGN ON.
Unless the bulb is gone, wires damaged to alternator.
It could be you alternator bad, but check the bulb, all relevant connectors for corrosion, Fuses: ECU-IG, AM2, ALT Sens.
Most importantly, check the wiring as in post #2
Cheers

did you check your ignitor? they crack and cause all sorts of missfire issues under boost. Interesting I wasn't aware of these... I see MR2Ben only has NA ones :( https://www.mr2-ben.co.uk/products/565 Thanks, T Hi Tony, Hope you are well! The igniter is the same for REV3+ turbo and N/A (except bea...

You remember correctly, I was wrong. With other hubs you have to, but not with these ones.

Re: Any Nardi steering wheel users?
I only needed the quick release once I started using a fixed bucket seat. As it seemed to move the wheel away from me, the quick release acted as a spacer and also made it easier to get out of the seat haha. If you've still got reclining seats it's probably fine without, also depending on what sort...

Re: Any Nardi steering wheel users?
Personally I prefer the HKB bosses, mine is the older style one though. I do run a driftworks snap off adapter on top of the boss for a spacer and to make it easier to get out of the fixed back seat. https://www.tegiwaimports.com/hkb-steering-wheel-boss-kit-toyota-glanza-ep91-mr2-sw20.html This is ...

My rocker cover has no breather valves at all. Can I just vent the holes in the cover to a catch can? Or is it a lo...
