I owned a Mk 4 GTI 1.8 Turbo before i brought my Mk 3 Vr6
Ive always assumed the turbos have a red I on the back where it says GTI and the standard 2.0 GTI's are just in chrome

There's a long thread somewhere in this section covering this topic (too lazy to find it) i think a conclusion was made though!
for the record the "GTI" badge on my '99 1.8T is entirely silver.

just my 2 cents
but the standard 1.8T with 150bhp is all sliver and the 1.8T with 180bhp has the red I
I think. Some one will correct me if i'm wrong though

i've got a 1.8T 150bhp and my GTI 'I' is red........i always thought that the 1.8T was red, the 1.8 GTI was silver and the 2.0 GTI was silver.

Don't look down your nose at the all silver GTI badge, It could be a PD150 as mine has the all silver badge..........

I thought only the anniversary diesels had gti badges? I thought the red TDI badge signified 150hp?
oh well

The red 'I' has no significance what so ever, its only something to do with lazy dealers that couldn't be bothered to put the all silver badges on, when they got delivered from where ever they originally came from!!!
