been doing some research to put a scooby engine in my 1.9 crewy and I got a question. As the scooby is Fuel Injected do I need a fuel tank with a "swirl pot" in it??

Don't think so, think you'll just need to put in a proper fuel pump to pressurise the engine fuel system.

Oh bugger and I thought I was starting with the easy question

Did you do the GTI conversions on FI WBX mr Hell?

You can always add a small chamber just behind the fuel tank to stop the problems with fuel starvation so that there is always fuel to supply the fuel pump with.
