planning on picking up in a few weeks. I know few of you guys have done it. I know it usually doesn't rain down here but when it does. Any electrical issues? I guess my main concern would be the alternator getting wet on a rainy day. |

I've had real heavy rain cause my spark plug wells to fill with water. That causes my car to misfire under full boost until I remove the water from there. I actually have a turkey baster in my hatch to suck the water from the wells. |

I do have a spark plug cover but for me the vent is a necessity. The car will overheat like crazy on the road course without it. |
