sorry to jump on your thread, but WMI is something that im extreemly interested in, my biggest concern is the meth killing the throttle body, where are people running their injectors?

As far as i can make out its a good mod on the tfsi but struggle to find any real info

TB are £50 on ebay so not the end of the world.   You can get a plate that goes befor the TB.

Most guys including myself run the Bsh throttle pipe for exactly the reason you highlighted.

Valance wont be fitted for a week or two, need a replacement bit that goes behind it.

2009/2010 are facelift Leon clocks with nicer white display and white back liting which would match my modded white LED climate lighting perfectly

Ultimately I want the Cupra version of those clocks but Im not sure at all how easy they are to fit & code into the car.

I may have to settle for pre face lift Leon Cupra large display clocks as they will be easier to retro fit, if anyone has any info on retro fitting the newer clocks it would be great.

Im sure its the same as retro fitting MK6 Gti stuff to a Mk5Gti ? I.e. MK6 R flat bottomed steering wheel to Mk5 Gti....
