    The short story:

    We owe this Golf from 1996 circa, bought used with a severe accident, for this reason we never drived with stock ABF engine.
    While putting back the car in 1996-1997 we are in the "turbo era" were everithing here was turbo
    Roads were full of Uno turbo, Punto GT turbo, Integrale, Calibra turbo, Cosworths and the upcoming MK4 GTI would be turbo too
    So our MK3 had to be turbo

    In these 20 years the car was used as test and research and probably had around 20 engine build, had hundreds of interior, transmission, suspension, electronics, exhaust, ecc. ecc. upgrades.

    Tested about 50 turbos

    Around 2011 the car had e very good setup and was a little rocket on the road, we tested with some Lamborghini and Ferrari and also with my mate Yamaha R1........but problem is that the traction in the last power upgrades was equal to zero.

    Sometimes was capable of fitting 5 gears from start in around 200 meters and only result was smoke from tyres

    We had two solution:
    plan a) reduce boost pressure
    plan b) do in the hard way
