Just curious: my 93 Cabriolet has the 1.8 8v mechanical injected engine. Is this the same as a Mk1 GTi?

basically yes it is the same, your cab will have hydro tappets and not solid lifters plus fine threaded air shrouded fuel injectors not coarse thread non-shrouded as per mk1 tintop plus you'll have the cold throttle fuel injection system added on which the tintops dont have. oh and you'll have a water cooled oil cooler rather than the air cooled oil radiator. its closer to a mk2 kjet gti engine than tintop really
edit: this assumes you mean 1.8 tintop lump, if 1.6 tintop the injection system is basically same as 1.8 tintop but the pistons are different as is the head and cam
