2004 HPA VW R32 - 202mph top speed
MotorTrend dedicates a page at the end of this month's issue of this modified Golf R32 beast.
There are 3 stages. Stage 1 brings the R32's 241 stock HP to 400HP, Stage 2 to 550HP and there is a full commando Stage 3 making an astonishing 600 HP from this 3.2 liter V6 engine. Turbochargers are used in all cases.
MT tested the Stage 2 car.
0-60 in 3.2 secs
1/4 in 11.49 @ 120.18 mph !!!
60-0= 107 ft
Slalom= 70.9 mph (that's EVO territory)
The stock R32 will give
0-60 in 6.4 secs
1/4 in 14.50 @ 95 mph
60-0= 115 ft
Slalom= 65.5
The dynos from HPA shows 409 wheel HP at a low 5250rpm and 437lb-ft @ 4500 rpm.

Oh, and there's no way that a Stage II ever gets street certification ... they use race cats instead of the stock ones like on the Stage 1 kit

Unbelievable - Twin Turbo R32 - - - By Les Bidrawn - - Source: europeancarweb
With a sound like the ripping of heavy-gauge canvas, the twin-turbo R32 breeched 60 mph in 3.2 sec. and went on to clear the quarter-mile with an ET of 11.4 sec. at 121 mph. That puts this VW in league with the latest from Lamborghini, Ferrari and Porsche--or, more accurately, ahead of them all.
The basis of HPA's phenomenal bump to the R32 lies within the twin-turbo program developed by the German company HGP. The VW's 24V narrow-angle six-cylinder engine is fed forced air by a pair of K04 turbochargers running about 19.5 psi of boost. Internally, the motor is fitted with low-friction black race bearings; compression is reduced from 11.3:1 to a safer 7.8:1 via an HGP head spacer. Both HGP and HPA developed the software designed to run on the factory's ECU. The intake, exhaust and fueling systems are proprietary bits developed by the two companies, and the twin intercoolers are much like those found on the 225-bhp Audi TT.
"We got more than 600 hp after that bit of mischief," said Marcel. "I'm told the driveline can handle loads in excess of 700 hp."
