You are using pip version 6.0.8, however version 7.1.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

Look at the output:

Some externally hosted files were ignored as access to them may be unreliable    
(use --allow-external pyaudio to allow).

You can install it adding extra arguments to pip:

pip install pyaudio --allow-external pyaudio --allow-unverified pyaudio

Also, do you have PortAudio installed?
