A high-performance special you can actually buy.
From the March 1983 issue of Car and Driver.At last you can go to a Volkswagen dealer and buy one of the long-awaited turbo Sciroccos. Unfortunately, they're available only from a few selected dealers in Connecticut, New Jersey, and New York. And the cars aren't built in Wolfsburg or even Westmoreland, but rather in Old Lyme, Connecticut.These blown Sciroccos come from none other than Callaway Turbo Systems.
Combined with the spacy wheels, these additions clearly differentiate the Turbo from garden-variety Sciroccos, yet are still reasonably subtle and tasteful. All of these modifications aside, the heart of the car is its turbo engine. With a mere eight pounds of boost, it's one of Callaway's milder installations, yet it still pumps the horsepower from 74 to 117.
