the 2.0 16v and later 8vs had a different sized thread on the ends of the injectors as you have just found out

cut the ends off and use a smaller nut if diameter of the old and new pipes are the same
You will need a flare kit that makes the lip on the end to ensure a snug fit thats the only way its gonna half work fella!
