Abt Sportsline is treating the Golf V R32 now with 372 bhp.
The ABT VW Golf R32 is powered by a 3.2 litre VR6 engine with 372hp on tap.
This is enough to propel the car from 0-100km/h in just five seconds flat, down from the stock version’s 6.2 second time for the same sprint.
The new ABT model is also capable of reaching a new top speed of 270km/h.
The extra performance comes from a series of mild modifications including a custom supercharger, ECU upgrade and 19" alloy wheels.

Yes that's the problem with turbo cars if there is a heat build-up under the hood.
Thats one of the reason's Audi choose a SC for the next gen S4.
I bet there will be some new RS6 that will fire-up in the future when they are tuned.
Thats why MTM have some models with vented hoods, te get rit of heat.

Actually, the Audi Sport Quattro Groupe B was the first one to get vented hood for heat reason.

Regarding the Golf V R32, MTM offers a 420 hp kit for a few months now. That's over 40hp more than Abt !

You are talking about a turbo kit, not a compressor kit.
They are two different thinks.

No, the compressor side of a turbo is the same as a compressor side of a compressor.
