HELP HELP SCIROCCO IN NEED

["Dan Miller" <legalizit@hectorite.i-p.com>]

My 88 scirocco 16v is still missing and hesitates upon acceleration, even when in neutral.  The problem tends to lessen as the RPMs go up over 1800-2200.  Also, the engine is producing very low torque, so mucht at to get evven somewhat of a quick start i have to rev upwards of 3500 rpm, whereas in my golf, a quick start usually means about 2500 rpm.  But between 2000 and 5000 rpm, the rocco pulls hard, but hesitates when the rpms are below 2000.  Im damn sure there isnt a vaccum leak, cuz when i stomp on the throttle in neutral, i can see the intake hose coming from the airbox suck in about 3/4 inch or more.  Any suggestions?  i have already siphoned the old gas (from dec 99 hehehe)  and filled it up with super 90 and added the proper proportion of injector cleaner.  With the 90 octane gas, believe it or not, it pulled harder in the reange specified above, but still had low power in the low power range specified above. The car has new plugs in it, the wires are fine, and it has new coolant temperature sensors and oil pressure sending units.  WHAT IS WRONG!!!  The car has a nice, kleen K&N as well, and teh timing hasnt been adjusted at all.  I NEED YOUR HELP!!!
