  1. A supercharger or turbo will add about 50% more power.  A standard 1.3 is 63 kW. Standard 1.5 is 81 kW (109 HP) or 150 HP with a turbo/super charger.

    If you squeeze a 2ZZ Corolla engine with 180 HP into an Echo you would notice more of a difference.

    Other improvements recommended would be strut brace and coil overs and if you're really keen a Scion rear axle and trailing arms.

  2. My daughter bought an Echo to learn to drive and as a first car.

    I don't normally have much to do with Toyotas but being the Dad means I'll have some troubleshooting and minor repairs and maintenance to do in the future.

    Hopefully I can gain some knowledge and sure some of my generic car knowledge at the same time.
