or you could just use a lift pump and go for a bosch 044 pump

if its a diesel one it just has a tin pot spot welded in which is an inferior design and isnt good enough for a petrol car. so i would say get a lifter pump and external swirl pot, and if possible send the tank back as it isnt a gti tank as advertised! the lifter pump will fit a carb tank just fine
the accumulator isnt required its there on the kjet system to smooth out fuel flow to the metering head, this job is done by the fuel rail on an EFI car

Then I would go for the later cab/rocco/g40 shape polo lifter pump and swirl pot route as I've seen a fair few people suffer from fuel starvation with the diesel tank
