I still want one.
I also still want one sitting on top of the mechanicals of a MkV R32 (yes, it does exist).

Had a buddy with a G60 back in the day. Mechanic, actually. Upgraded to a B ahn B renner twin screw S/C. Upgraded injectors and a “chip.”
He would drive around and the S/C whine was so loud it sounded like a siren. People would literally pull over and let him pass because they were so confused. It was dope.
I tried endlessly to get him to invest in a stand-alone and Dyno tuning, but he insisted the chip was sufficient.
It wasn’t.
The engine grenaded, he ended up on herion, and the car never ran again under his ownership.
It's cool though. He got clean, found Jesus, and moved to Vermont. Haven't talked to him in probably a decade, but hope he's doing better than the Corrado was last I saw it.

I don’t know if this is the one you are thinking of, it has a MKV GTI engine, but this one was done by a shop local to me. I’m surprised I was able to find the old EuroTuner article, looks like their achieve is now owned by this Super Street Online.

60-0 in 108 feet. Pretty darn good.
Good looking little car too.
