TTS head studs

[messejme]

Has anyone used these? ARE THEY ANY GOOD?

 

[sweetdiesel]

They are made by ARP So they should be good

Heard they were made by A1 Technologies, but who knows.

I was told by ARP that they make 2 different Head stud kits for the max. The "2000" set that sells for between $500.00 and $700.00. The "custom age +625" set for around $2000.00(Obviously the cheaper set stretches, hence they made a better grade).
Then there is the TTS set that sells for around $1200-$1300.Huckstorf diesel had a nice write up about all three.They had good things to say about the TTS set.

Has Hucksdorf actually ran them at high boost levels yet? I dunno. I know they are a TTS dealer. I run ARP's from SoCal Diesel.

Honestly I would go with ARP studs hands down. The R&R that ARP has put into there design can't be touched by TTS. The ARP 625 studs can be had for a lot less than 2000$.

I thought ARP's "level 2" set cost around $1100-$1300

So did I

They are around 1500-1600$ But say you were building an engine with a shop I sure they would give you a better price than that

Yep same ones ATS sells. They fall inbetween Arps sets in strength & price.

TTS studs have the secret table :rofl: had to say it fairy dust

I have been happy with TTS custom studs.
90+ psi max, but only 5000km.

 

[LBZ]

So I understand this, TTS and ATS sell studs that are of a strength that is between the cheap and expensive ARP studs?

It was 140 ft lb, and same again after 1 day standing iirc.
For me it have been working very good so far.
Standard ARP studs lift heads with milder turbos and tunes in same km´s.
