yes, providing either ...
1) The bore size of the sport cat is the same as the stock exhaust
or
2) if not you use reducers to make the cat's bore the same size
either way, it can be done

Milltek have also dropped the Polo GTI exhaust due to a poor fit.
Glad i didn't buy one. . .

not without reducers, as the stock bore is 1/2 inch smaller than the miltek
the miltek will bolt on to the downpipe ok, as its a downpipe and cat setup, but at the cat end, your going to need the bore reducing to bolt it together
as andy says, the full system is a dire fit, as its the same one for the ibiza's, they never modified it to fit the polos bumper correctly
but with a little bit of work from pipewerx
its perfect, good gains too, i picked up 14 bhp at top end and 20 at midrange with the turbo back resonated system, it also sounds ... GORGEOUS
