Yup, AGU has bigger ports on the head, having the bigger port head provides a good benefit for high flow turbo applications. I know Wilko and Ed plan to fit big port heads to their large turbo 1.8T's for better flow.
 
Not that I'm aware of, there are a few big power 1.8T's going about with 1.9L capacity with no problems. Am planning on getting mine rebuilt to 1.9L within the next year or 2 when I get a big turbo sorted out. Was speaking to Grant Motorsport a whileback about 1.9 rebuilds and they've done a few now and recomend it with stronger rods etc for long term reliability with big turbo applicaions. Your project sounds good, looking forward to hearing how you get on.
