In short the gti inlet is too big, and the tb twice the size as the 1.8s too, and the ecu is crap and throws a wobbler causing running issues, overfuelling and eventually wrecks the engine.
C.A.R is another who will agree.
If you're gonna mod the 1.8, do it properly and get a stand-alone ecu. Most won't bother with this as they want a 'cheap bolt-on mod' rather than spend the money, but that's the only way you'll get it working right.
