i'm sure there was a similar post on mk1golf forums and it turned out that there was a shim missing from the pressure regulator in the metering head
maybe swop the pressure regs over first rather than change m/head?
did the metering head that you changed come from a working car?

mmmh i had a gander on clubgti and there was athread where a guy had changed his injectors, but the new injectors did not have the silver 'caps' on them, so he swapped them them over from the old ones, but it turns out the bosch techy he took it to removed 'caps' and car ran fine

have a look over on clubgti and do search of 16v fuelling

really you need pressure guage to diagnose fault otherwise its gonna be very hit and miss, oh and try a brand new fuel filter in case other one has been partially blocked

 i dont think petrol is 100% clean you know, as in there is gonna be the odd particule or dirt etc in it after all the underground storage tanks do corrode

maybe by not running a filter all you have done is blocked the metering head or injectors again
