This is great intel! Appreciate the quick responses for the community! Been living without a modded Titan Ridge card until now but the benefits to have Thunderbolt are worthwhile considering how much more devices continue to use it and the roadblocks I have been hit with.
In essence, the EFI that Pastrychef has provided should be sufficient enough for the thunderbolt which means I simply need to mod the Titan card firmware following the SPI flash post instructions. I have had some experience flashing with SPI in the past when soldering 8 pins from a Prius 2004-2009 odometer cluster board and programing the mileage to correct spec by modifying hex digits for replaced dashboards. It literally follows the same similar protocol with 3.3v and 5v scenarios.
Used "HiLetgo 51 Microcontroller Programmer SP200SE USB Burner Support AT89C52 24C02 93C46 300 Variety of Chips" from amazon as well as "AiTrip CH341A 24 25 Series EEPROM Flash BIOS USB Programmer + SOIC8 SOP8 Clip Adapter Module".
This is truly the Hackintosh community when you go about "hacking" the hardware and tinkering with stuff
If you flash your Thunderbolt card, replace the SSDT with one that's needed with flashed Thunderbolt cards.
