hey, i have a vt, just ordered a 69mm tb and tune, but one screw on my PCM has been rounded completely...i have a spare vt PCM here, just wondering if i can put my memcal in that and straight swap PCM? will i run into BCM issues? also, my model is a berlina and my spare PCM is from an executive, will i lose any functions?

I'm pretty sure you will have to get your key head matched to the new PCM

Easier to by an easy out to remove the rounded screw.

I'm not sure about your exact situation but I had a mates BA that we needed to take out a rounded screw so we just grabbed a hack saw blade and cut a groove and undid it with a flat blade screw driver.

I have been considering going to order a 69mm TB too, but i wanted to know if you guys sell an aftermarket airflow meter as well as the TB.. to me the standard flow meter looks very restricting.

Another option, I didn't think about

Hey allan01,

We do sell an aftermarket MAF meter, however it would require a custom tune to suit

If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to ask

Kindest Regards,
Steve
