Hi All, long time reader, first time writer, bla bla bla...anyways, thought I would start contributing to the wealth of knowledge this site has taught me. This is my 92 TT Soarer I have had for a few years now. Have just had a single mount turbo put in and loving the extra power now. Have also had the suspension, wheels and exhaust modified. Gotta say this would be the best car I have owned.

Welcome to the club Aaron !

Nice looking soarer you have there mate. What kind of single turbo setup did you go with? Looks like a KKR or similar ?

Hi Guys, thanks for the compliments.
James-you are right. The turbo is a KKR430. I blew one of the twins and it was more economical for me to go single rather than rebuild. A mechanic mate also helps though...I find the response is nearly the same as the twins but it now has more scope for tuning.
Stuart-the suspension I am using is Kings Low Springs and KYB shocks. Nothing too flash but I like the ride height and the handling is 100 times better than standard.

Aaron that looks so nice. A perfect example of how easy it is to make a stock soarer look whoa.

Very nice indeed! Stealth performance as Don says. :-)

Looks like a clean example of a Soarer. Good job.

Hey Guys, for anyone who is interested, I have attached the link from my single turbo build-up. A mate had posted it online during the build and I thought I should share it with everyone. http://www.toymods.net/forums/showthread.php?t=29160&highlight=soarer+turbo
Hope it helps for those doing the conversion.

No wonder it is so clean. JZK25 did the work. He does some clean stuff :-)
