I agree, "the guy fitted a Garret 38 turbo with a heavily worked motor and barely pulled 180kw at the wheels" just doesn't ring true. Having said that, it's a costly exercise to turbo this engine and you have to question is it worth putting so much money into this car. I'd sooner put the money towards something newer like a Golf R.
