Blue GT Milltek Exhaust

Hi I'm thinking of changing the exhaust on my 6c blue gt been looking at the Milltek exhausts I know they don't list one for the blue gt but I have been told that the gti exhaust will fit fine. Does anybody know if I would need to order the exhaust for the 1.4 or the new 1.8 gti?

Cheers

Re: To all Blue GT owners

Bit of an update: dealer rang me today and said my car is now in the uk in Grimsby port he said should be at dealers within the next 3 weeks but could be sooner.

How long did everybody else's car take to get from port to dealer?
