May sound a lil stupid but hear me out..
The engine in the front of the '6 is heavier and acts like more of an anchor than the 1.8 does. The lighter 1.8 has better handling (IMO) because of this lighter engine, whereas the GTi6 is more prone to over steer because the engine gives the car a kind of 'pendulum' effect, where the back of the car wants to overtake the weighted front end...
Just an idea.
