I've ported TWRP to the vibe p1/ turbo. It should work when you flash it, but using it is still a try at your own risk procedure. Your bootloader must be unlocked to use this recovery. Fastboot mode is used to flash or boot this recovery. To enter fastboot mode, adb reboot bootloader

To temporarily boot this recovery:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
To permanently flash it:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
The download is up on the AndroidFileHost.

Flashing guide(without fastboot)-
Method#1: this guide for whom got TWRP recovery v3.0.1-0 via QFIL using QPST software or who has @_kyo_ 's TWRP installed

1)load this latest TWRP (v3.1.0-0 or updated version) in sdcard or internal storage
2) boot into existing TWRP recovery
3)click on install tab
4)here from bottom left popup menu, select appropriate storage and from bottom right toggle, switch to INSTALL IMAGE mode(see screenshot)
5)flash latest TWRP v3.1.0-0 as recovery(see screenshot)
6)reboot into new TWRP recovery


Methof#2:Another method is using QPST's qfil option. In this method simply add latest version of twrp >put that into same location where stock(288) twrp existed>than apply same method with updated twrp as you did while qfil-ing stock twrp
