Jetta 1.8t or GTI

Friend of mine is lookin into both cars and asked me for some advice, im a VW newb so posting here.

He is looking at the 1.8t jetta and GTI.

Main concern is the motor. They are both using the 180 horsepower motors (jetta is not the GLI). I am going on what he said I dont know the difference between the two.

He is wondering if its the same motor?? I personally know people pushing 15-20psi on the stock motors on the GTI, but he wants to do the same without shelling out the cash for the GTI/GLI by just getting a regular 1.8t and working that instead.

Are they the same motor? Are his figured for mod potential accurate?
