Yep, '02 is still MKIV. Although you are starting with 180hp on the 02, you don't end up with 30 more hp, as opposed to the 150hp, once you start modding it. Think of the 180hp 1.8T's as a factory tuned 150hp 1.8T. When you chip them both. You end up with right around the same hp (210/215ish). Plus whatever you decide to do after that. Just don't think that you'll end up with 30 more hp, with the same mods on a 180hp 1.8T as you would on a 150hp one. They end up pretty close.

As for the price difference, there's about a $3k difference between an '00 1.8T GTI and an '02 1.8T GTI (around 15-16k vs around 18-19k)
