1.8T into early golfs is a straight swap if you start with a 1.8 GTI, no chassis mods required. Even if you choose a poverty spec 1.3 golf as the base car you just need the right bolt on mounts, so as long as it’s not been bolted together by a complete fucktard you should be ok
Here is a really good 1.8T swap guide

I would think so, but that’s contingent on the conversion not having (mild end) involved BFH or (severe end) angry grinder and welder where the body didn’t want to play with the new mechanicals.
There is likely a forum thread for the car which might provide some clues?
