Hi,

I wanted to share with everyone my Echo Project. Normally you would consider an Echo as an economy car but this is far from the original car.

It is the only echo in the world to have a 4age 20v blacktop motor with a 6 speed transmission and LSD. It's also turbocharged.

Currently pushing 240whp at 5psi. Can be 300whp with the boost turned to 9psi.

Cheers

Hey, great work. I too have been toying around with another Econo-Box. My 04 Hyundai Accent. So far Im still just trying to get some tunning work finished, but right now I'm at around 5-7 psi using a Mitsubishi 14b. Once I've figured out how to detune the 290cc injectors I have for it I'll be able to push 10psi no problem. Since I havnt really put much money nto the engine at all. I'm saving up and going to do a 94 Sonota 2.0 (which so happens to be a 4G63) and tranny and boost that.
