The main purpose of this paper is to make an exhaustive revision at 4-5 digit of ISIC of Argentinean GDP methodology in order to reproduce GDP series since 1993; taking into account same traditional series and methodology that had been used for 25 years up to 2007. ARKLEMS reproducible showed a slower growth than official series. But contrary to several myths, the gap is not related with deflation with distort prices index, directly linked with the abandon of traditional methodology followed by argentinean national accounts. The paper showed that while Argentina growth was important during recent growth episode, similar to period 1990-1998; and it was not the growth championship of Latin America.
