Mitsubishi showcase 1800 °c , and plans are for 2000°c at max , meanwhile the latest ACE tested by GE is above 2100°c at max , so your argument don't hold ground , and trent was a first venture of RR in that field but GE don't have issue with blades but other mechanical structure , and they have over exploited the capacity of single crystal blades in f135 , new ceramic matrix composite blades are much better and have higher scope of development .As far as released info goes, MHI engine was classed as the top level in terms of attained temperature in 2011 by themselves and many others at the time. Since then information has been released about higher turbine temperatures which I have acknowledged.
If the engine is not capable of sustaining the lifecycle expected from it with confidence, that engine is not ready. We have the examples of Trent-1000 and F135. It is not an issue of delivery time. RR themselves have said it that due to technical problems and slow production rate of these special blades they have a problem of supply. Not just for new engines but new blades for the faulty engines. All 50 BA and 24 Nippon dreamliners have now been grounded.

A total of 46 F35s are on the ground due to engine problems in the US. More than 15% of the current fleet have engine failures.
Rolls-Royce hit by further setback to fixing Boeing 787 engines
Rolls-Royce <RR.L> will take longer than expected to fix problems with its Trent 1000 engine, frustrating efforts to get Boeing <BA.N> 787s grounded by the glitch flying again and knocking the British company's shares.www.reuters.comNo one writes here for sake of reply!

F110 is a tested and reliable engine, albeit old school. The 132 version is the one that the Turkish engine company is working on. After the prototypes TFX will fly with these. Initial few squadrons of planes will be 4++ generation with limited stealth characteristics. At a later stage more powerful and developed engines will be used as indigenous engine technology of TEI improves which will be more akin to stealthy operations. This won’t happen until well in to 2030’s. That is the defined timeline of the project.
We are walking before we start running.
And I Haven't said that turkey can't develop those engine , i said it will take time and money , and delay may happen . And for the dimensions of the plane , the jet may face issue of being underpowered with f 110 thrust level ,and if you try to increase thrust without increasing pressure and temp ratio ,you will get quite low efficiency and high fuel consumption . J20 problem are similar to the above situation .
I haven't belittled turkey in any statement ,i just showed the scope of problems that lie ahead and how can it affect a project .
Btw tfx Don't have dsi , why ?? It will affect stealth , I think Design isn't finalized yet .
