Default do I have hydraulic lifters or solid

OK I am thinking of doing a cam, 4 into 2 manifold and downpipe, and k&N. But I have a question on the TTTuning website I see that the cam for the hydraulic lifters in a 1.8 8v motor is a lot cheaper then the solid lifter. Does anyone know what I have? I am assuming it is solid but I am not sure, it is a 91 golf with a 1.8 8v motor. I know that I am not going to get a lot more power out of that motor but since I only have a 137,000kms on the motor and car I really can't see me swapping out the motor yet. Plus with my car not having any options, like power steering or a/c, there is nothing robbing any power from the motor. Thanks,

Fred
