The boxer motor on the 86 (yes yes you can all laugh at how "slow" it is) has both port and direct injection
I don't think that they did, the MkVI GTi (EA113?) was an adaptation of the MkV GTi (EA888?) motor and not a total redesign. Proves my point though, the original TSI was a twincharged engine, the FSi was an N/A and the turbo FSi was TFSi or FSi T. Now, none of it makes sense...
and a mk1 is a citi

Mk5 tfsi (bwa ea113) direct injection
Mk6 tsi (ccz ea888) direct injection
Mk7 tsi....direct and port injection

The only real way to fix it is to have the intake valves cleaned then fit a complete catch can setup which does away with the problematic pcv system, wmi may help a little too but not as much as you'd think.

Only if you use it when there is no carbon build up. using it when you already have carbon build up makes the cleaning process more difficult
