That is a great question to which I have not found a perfect answer.
The case should be the same.
By comparing part numbers it looks like most bearings are the same but some are not.
First and second gears have same ratios and the part numbers are the same.
But DVP has weaker diff.
Conclusion:
DVP is not as strong as G86.00, but time will tell how well it handles the increase in torque.
The 1.6L passat has 148 nm of troque while the 2.5L M96 has 245 nm of torque.
