Gold turbo echo with stickers... like those KEI cars in Japan... that would be good ! hehehe
where do I get these silly ideas from ? 
This idea is worse than putting a twin turbo in a Celica...

I've been wanting an echo for a while now! Theres one that lives near me, tough little bodykit and wheels. The Top Secret Echo looks pretty awesome too! Either that, or a Suzuki Cappucino and work the hell out of them!. Imagine the look on the face of a Monaro driver as ou whoop him in a little cute thing like that!

I have a 2NZ-FE Echo 1300cc engine here, and I can say for sure that the rods are not strong enough to turbo the engine. You'd need to get something much stronger.

The Yaris is the Japanese name for the Echo...
And yes, the Cuppacino is a RWD turbo...

Denzo from Japanese Motorsport has a Cappachino and it doesn't seem to have THAT many mods and pulls 12 seconds I hear. Very impressive!!
Can us Aussies import KEI cars??
At the moment with petrol prices going up they might be a goer! I know a few people that would be keen after guzzler cars that are only about the same speed and I could imagine the KEI cars would be lots of fun with 12" wheels.
I read an article about a stock supercharged Subaru REX and it spun the wheels in 3rd at a fair speed. That would be cool. And they also said it had the signature Subaru thump like WRX's....and this was only a 2cy!!
