TTC mod question

Recommended Posts

When I do the '5 minute TTC conversion' by just switching around a couple of hoses, am I just able to keep it like this the whole time.

 

Or is there any benefit doing the permanent TTC mod. If there really is no benefit then I would rather not go through the hassle of doing that.

 

I just want to make sure the car performs in the same way with the 'termporary' mod compared to the permanent one.

Well I have done a lot of reading on TTC.

 

It seems like a lot of people like it a lot and others just like sequential more.

 

Personally the benefits for me it gives sounds really good, especially put less stress on the turbos while I can run 1.2 bar, sounds beasier, etc.

 

I'll do the temp mod and see how it is first.

Oh boy......

 

I tried everything I can to gently remove the hoses.

End result, I ended up cracking OFF two connecting points (outlined in green in pictures), I had to cut the rest of the hoses to just remove them.

 

For TTC I have everything hooked up correctly.

 

In sequential, I was already have a bad leak where my 2nd turbo wasn't coming online most of the time.

 

Took the car for a drive, just like in Sequential most of the time the boost wasn't coming on properly. In 2nd this happend all the time, in 3rd it usually did fully spool up just after 4000rpm.

 

Also when I revved, and between 3000-4000 I have this rattling sound coming from the engine, like shacking a jar full of little rocks or something.

 

Will go to my mecanic tomorrow hope we can get it sorted. I want everything in order before going BPU.

I'm taking it to a friends shop, he works on Supra's often, and has a 800bhp one himself.

He will let me know what the problem is.

 

If the turbos are actually on the way out it would be a good excuse for a single setup ;)

hopefully just a leak going on somewhere though.
