yes they will
beng for a 1.1 they may be a tad softer than vtr springs but then again i have 1.1 springs on a 16v and its not too bad
im assuming there lowering springs

Probably wont notice much difference really in terms of handling. The ones for the 1.1 106 may lower the car a bit, and also lower yours, but as the stiffness is made to match the weight of the 1.1 engine the actual behaviour of the springs probably wont be any different to the standard ones

twitchy as in how
they do feel a tad loose at the badk but i wouldnt say twitchy
ive never found a standard car twitchy unless it had 4 pots and i was mullering them twitched quite well then

the gti are a heavier engine
so stiffer springs (by a little bit)
will still fit fine
