[3ch0o0]

I have a 2002 Echo Sportivo & looking to turbo charge this little beast. What brand/size turbo should i get & what nessesary engine mods should i take before i put in a turbo? Also OPINIONS of my Echo ive modded :)

i like your headlights :3

edit: good luck in finding turbo equipment for your echo, its gna be a bit hard, you cant just "slap in a turbo"

you'd need like a new manifold, intercooler, etc etc, lot of work and reasearch :]

Maybe try and get a Vitz RS (jdm import) halfcut?

Otherwise its all down to how much power youre after or how much is in the budgets...

There are some kits on ebay, but then you need add ECU

keep in mind that reliability will also fly out the window

Any news on this topic ?

Just wondering as I have been looking too and seen a little about the blitz supercharger kit, although I think it's a little long in the tooth now yeah ?
