Attero Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 How much do you think Silverstone garage do it for (assuming they include all the parts)? I'm not planning on doing it, I'm just curious. It's worth just getting a TT tbh with the cost of it (short-term and long-term). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say the 5 spd TT conversions I have done/driven feel quicker than a 6 spd, almost like a small single. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you talking about putting a TT lump in or doing an NA-TT? I swear I've missed something here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Is that all? Are you talking about putting a TT lump in or doing an NA-TT? I swear I've missed something here. The NA - TT conversion is done by fitting a TT engine into an NA;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attero Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Surely you can just do a NA-TT upgrade just like NA-T rather than putting a whole new engine in? I would have expected to pay a lot more to do such thing still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Surely you can just do a NA-TT upgrade just like NA-T rather than putting a whole new engine in? No, you cant. Engine swap is the only way to Twin turbo an N/A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Is that all? Are you talking about putting a TT lump in or doing an NA-TT? I swear I've missed something here. You may be getting confused with an NA-T conversion which is, put simply, adding a turbo to an NA. Its far more than that though and to do properly would more than likely cost more than going NA-TT which is swapping for a TT lump, loom, clocks etc. I had an NA auto which I spent quite a bit on; bumpers, wheels, seats, etc. So when I came across a TT auto breaker on here at a good price I snapped that up for around the price of a conversion. Plus it was already BPU, well almost. Doing this got me everything I needed including the autobox, diff and drive shaft. I did the work myself along with a couple of mates over 2 or 3 nights so saved in labour costs. All the traders mentioned will be able to do want you want and are very well respected.

Attero Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Oh right. So when people end up saying "it's worth getting a TT", they actually mean either buying a TT Supra or a TT Engine? If that's the case, I might consider doing a TT conversion in a years time or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They usually mean sell the na and buy a tt unless ofcoarse their flogging engines and doing tt upgrades inc gearbox's diffs etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
