Steve Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 For those that dont know have a read of this: http://www.mkiv.com/techarticles/ettc/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPRALOOPY Posted November 7, 2005 Author Share Posted November 7, 2005 what is it? it takes out the sequencial (sp) system and gives you a smooth delivery of both tubbys at 3000-4000 rpm as i read it:woot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 I have considered this, not sure what to think of it. Would love to see what happens with your and let you make the mistakes lol I think nic has done this. maybe he is the guy to talk to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieSteve Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Only heard bad things about it to be honest. Number 1 thing everyone hated was the noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Its horrible IMO, total loss of low end power and no difference once everything is online. I like the sub 3.5k rpm torque and love the 4k rpm kick True Twin kills both these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 I did think about doing this, but i like the low end grunt i get from the sequential setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pig Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Still looks pretty complicated to me lol. So what do you think of it?? Im well up for the idea of trying it. How does it compare...performance wise? e.g. 0-60 and quater mile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 i think in terms of 0-60 etc.. nowt in it, as your still producing the same amount of power. with an TT6 - you will have to use the gearbox a bit more, but since your auto - that doesnt matter. There is a quick way to see if you like TTC, takes about 5 mins, just have to swap 2 pipes over - again, thats on my website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Just looked through that. May do it while with someone who is a little better with cars than me. If i get it wrong can i do any major damage? Whats the pro's of ettc? rather than quick way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heckler Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 I personally cant see any damage occuring if you get the pipe version wrong. Ettc - you cut into the wiring loom for 2 of the VSV's which control part of the sequential system, and put a switch in, when "ETTC" is selected, the VSV's are "grounded" and there held "Open" as they would be when both turbos are online in sequential mode.
