MK2 GTI 8v one is a good upgrade, but your inlet needs porting to make it fit.  a MK2 G60 inlet might be a closer match as its already designed for the MK2 size throttle body, and it points in the right direction for MK1 use. only issue is if you are able to hook up all the vac lines to it properly as i'd guess the pipes arnt quire right
