Anyways, I tried checking some sites for the parts used in the Blitz kits but am having trouble finding the kit for the Echo. I have a gut feeling that the Blitz kit is a supercharger kit rather than a turbo kit... Anybody know where to find the proper info? |

Also... the supercharger is less power (although it's linear which would be nice ;D) Where as if I play my cards right, maybe a turbo for under 2000$cdn... (if I get things from the scrap and buy some used ::)) |
Re:Echo hatchback w/ RHb5?
Hmmm.... found this;

Re:Echo hatchback w/ RHb5?
elprototypes has a kit for the Scion with the same engine, it's been in the mags and their is plenty of info. in the Scion forums, I think it's over $3k USD.
Personally, if I had a brand new car (been thinking of buying an echo hatch for commuting), I wouldn't skimp on too much junkyard stuff, I'd probably go with a log mani, with a small external gate with a 4 psi spring and a new Garrett T25. For engine management, an EIC (www.sdsefi.com). If you used an aquamist instead of an IC you could probably leave your timing as is. This is a setup I've been thinking about for a while. An S-AFC would work too, with a little bigger injectors, but I like the EIC more for a low boost setup since you don't have to butch the wiring harness, which would void your warranty. Good luck Neil |
