Speaking under correction. White is for the 5-speeds and red for 4-speeds. At least I think so. My golf has the aug gearbox and uses the white one

Depends on final drive ratio not how many gears.
Red = 3.67:1
White = 3.9:1
Green = 4.2:1
The FFZ box has a 3.9 diff ratio.

Thanks Missioner. Took my best guess, also thanks for the link, want to start doing some D.I.Y. where my skills allow.
