Is it true that the Bosch Green Tops shouldn't be used in the 1.8t? <edited>

Greentops are pretty coarse injectors with a firehose spray pattern...
much better suited to big 2-valve domestic motors than they are to small turbocharged 5-valves.
They will work, but they don't handle the low flow requirements of smal motors at idle and their on-off times are not good.
There are much better choices for these motors.

the min load of a DBW A4 is too low to allow them to idle properly
the injector on-time begins to hunt. i used to have logs of all the research i did but my old logging laptop crashed.
