Re: Turbo bar gauge does not go beyond zero bar
A quick update. Last time discovered the exhaust and the inlet manifold studs were quite loose. Planned to take out the exhaust and the inlet manifold for checking. The carb and the inlet manifold was removed. http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d84/thomas_hmlo/5E0D7965-1343-49F7-8BF3-C8C21DA68813.jpg...

Re: Turbo bar gauge does not go beyond zero bar
Thanks for the reply. I think the problem is the cylinder gasket failure at the inlet and exhaust manifold. The bolts are very loose. Will check more later. May I know the turbo bar pressure when you are driving? Some ppl said up to 4K rpm is at 0.28 bar. Above 4k rpm max 0.48 bar. Is this correct? ...

Re: Turbo bar gauge does not go beyond zero bar
Did more checking today! Hope it will not be too boring. A. Check the Plenum chamber by replacing with another one. Check the pressure of both before installing.... By holding compress air gun. They both hold the same pressure value. The screws which mount the chamber to the fiber tray were so diffi...

Re: Turbo bar gauge does not go beyond zero bar
The gauge only goes max to zero bar. It does not goes beyond that point.
The turbo does not boost when I drive the car on road at high rpm.

Re: Found my ERA (
With the fuel pump problem sorted, finally able to take it for a ride. Sharing some photos which were taken earlier. Plus got a steering wheel from Japan. I found it may not be a good match with my ERA. But it is very good in condition. http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d84/thomas_hmlo/CBD2DF6E-7FCD...
