Let's do some time traveling! Since I've been posting about Project-T, I've actually gone ahead and done a lot more that I can write! In fact, it has already been around about TWO years since the little monster has been boosted!
So here's a fast forward post to get you up to speed and the conclusion of Project-T! ...But don't worry, I'll back track after this post so you can see all the crazy happenings once you've boosted your monster!
After
Boostworx worked their magic, I've maintained the lil'Sportivo with K&N oil filters and Castrol Edge Sport fully synthetic oils (5W-30). I've simply been tuning the car and using it as my daily drive. Lots of LOL things have happened, to be posted in due time, which could help out others in similar situations.
Other than a bargain second hand
Go Fast Bits (GFB) Deceptor Pro Blow-off Valve (BOV) which I scored on eBay, and a replacement wideband computer, no other major mods has been done!
To date here's the current specs of the monster:
Fried Rice BANZAI Toyota Echo Sportivo
Engine and Drivetrain:
- 1NZ-FE, turbocharged with Zage TDO4HL-32G @ 0.5 bar
- ??? HP (un-dynoed)

There's some newer pics of what I've been working on recently on my Instagram (friedricebanzai), so feel free to check that out too!
Although Project-T is now deemed COMPLETE, I still have lots of war stories to tell about from tuning to maintenance... The fun never ends with boost!
