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

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