IMO the best sounding mk5/6 use an aftermarket catted/resonated downpipe mated to stock catback and even then they don't sound GREAT
the mk5-6 use stroked/bored internals that are the same for the mk4 hence you can use the mk5 (maybe mk6 is different not sure) crank as a stroker option in the mk4

also the heads share similar ports etc and can be bolted onto mk4 blocks. although I didnt think of the fact that it has a slightly bigger turbo (k04 correct?)

and the amount of bends would definitely have an acoustic effect.
