Which is a lot and you must consider yourself lucky your TCT is still quiet so cross fingers Unfortunately last week i came across a second fail of Billmans TCT in another Greek car. I think he has different upgrade stages from what i know. Happy of course to take it back and do another stage upgrade. I have the inline pro TCT and i never heard a single "tick" after i installed it

I need to go and have a good listen to mine but at the same time although I am running 18 psi at full boost, the car does not see full boost that frequently at the moment with the roads being damp & greasy it is too easy to get the back end to start wriggling even when going in a straight line if you boot if hard

Sorry to jump in here but I am looking for a TCT that I can "play" with!!
Anyone got a spare used one that I could acquire for a small contribution and postage?

The going rate for a used TCT is around £45 IIRC ....

( For Example )

Just picked up a TCT from the States, £105 shipped. Fitted within an hour, biggest problem, time consumer, was dismantling the airbox!

Stripped the old TCT to see what's happening..........

Do you get £45 back if you return your old one?

No, just bought it outright, I want to investigate the problem of the TCT, understand how it is supposed to work and why it stops working.
I don't subscribe to the theory that the insides go "smooth" .........
The people that modify these know the problem.......

I also HATE having to pay the ripoff Britain prices.. about £280 form Honda here and yet I can ship from a Honda dealer in the US for £105 and that's at the low £ to $ rate at the moment....

Did you get hit for VAT and duty on that?

Nope !!
Even if I had it would have been less than the cheapest version in the UK that I have seen..£187 I think??
