I pulled out the 2000 GCR (and ITCS) to see how similar cars were spec'd in IT back then. If it wasn't so sad, it would be funny.

ITA:

'93 VW Golf III 1984cc 8v 10:1 2350# (115hp stock, ABA motor)
'93 VW Jetta III 1984cc 8v 10:1 2480# (115hp stock, ABA motor)
'86-'88 VW Scirocco 16v 1780cc 16v 10:1 2320# (123hp stock, PL motor)
'87-'89 VW Golf GTI 16v 1780cc 16v 10:1 2220# (123hp stock, PL motor)

ITB:

'85-'87 VW Golf/GT/GTI 1780cc 8v 10:1 2280# (103-105hp stock, RD motor)
'85-'87 VW Jetta 1780cc 8v 10:1 2350# (103-105hp stock, RD motor)
'83-'88 VW Scirocco 1780cc 8v 8.5:1 2270# (90hp stock, JH motor)

Just a small slice to show just how busted this system was. These people didn't have a frickin' clue. I'm sure there are plenty of other examples throughout that ITCS.
