Apart from if its an early GSi, it'll be a C16 and thus have an airflow meter.

no it wont.
the inlet on the C16XE GSi is larger than the X14XE (sport) inlet.
the pipe diameter is too small on the sport air filter, it wont fill the inlet pipe on the C16XE engine.

it will work the other way round.
i had a filter from a gsi on my 1.4 16v sport, but the pipe on the filter went on the outside of the inlet pipe.
if you put a filter from a 1.4 16v, or late 1.6, on an early gsi, there will be a gap, so it doesnt fit.
