GTI with a red i meant it was the turbo version, although you can now have turbo badges underneath GTI.
The red i on the tdi means its either the 110bhp or 130bhp+ model. all chrome tdi badges mean they are the entry level tdi at around 90bhp.

i think thats how it started actually, red 'i' meaning turbo version, it got all lost somewhere down the line

from my knoweldge the red indicates power...
on a tdi
silver+ std
1 red+ 110bhp
2red = 130bhp,
3red = 150bhp
maybe wrong, but im sure ill be corrected if so

as far as i understood it was to do with tuning, Red I means its faster on the low end, Silver means faster on the high end, At least thats what my mum told me.
