every single time i work on my car and take out the plugs and shit i have to adjust my CPS to make the car starts then it gives the car a sluggish feeling

like im only gettin 180hp or so

it happen when did my compression test, happen when i drove and let it rest for 6 hrs while i work, happened to me when i drove had to adjust it to start the car

its annoying as hell cuz its full power then no power then burn out power then feels like a honda D series motor

I'm a little ignorant. What does "CPS" stand for? Is there any more detail you can add to the story? Odd probelm you have there ,all the plug wires and vaccume hoses in good condition?

cam position sensor, i think

yeah its cam positioning sensor-CPS

Ok its almost like anytime i have to unplug my ignitor pack i have to adjust the CPS and even sometimes just driving normally the CPS needs little bit of adjustment to get it started..i had to adjust it when i change my damn plugs

Now my CPS cover is broken so i might end up getting a new one
my timing is exactly at 10degrees already checked it but my car feels sluggish even when turbo kicks it feels like i dont even have a turbo motor more like a N//A again i get no kick from the motor at any RPM

Well, first off 180HP at the wheels is about right for a MKIII Turbo that's only in decent shape and running stock boost. As for your problem have you checked the connectors for signs of oxidization and the wires for excessive resistence? Also make sure all the related ground are clean, electrically sound and making a good connection.

This definitely sounds like a wiring issue to me.
