All gti's tap. The injectors are very noisy however if its a valve tap, id just get a used head and put that on.
If its injector tap, it wont get louder so as you rev it, the noise of the engine will drown it out.
If it gets louder and faster when you rev the engine, its more than likely a valve. You can loose power from a tapper but a rebuild will sort it out. What you dont want to happen is the valve head to snap off because then its new engine time.
