Here's the info i got from them:

"I suggest completing the following courses in the order listed:
FAA IR SEP
Hour build
JAA CPL MEP
JAA IR MEP conversion (7 days in US + 14 in UK)

You will need a minimum of 150 total hours (100 of which must be PIC), as well as have all 14 ATPL exams passed, before you can start JAA CPL training.
You will need to convert your PPL into a FAA PPL, apply for TSA approval, and receive a M1 visa prior to entering the US for flight training. The process typically takes 4-6 weeks to complete. The FAA PPL conversion process is a simple application process"

So i guess that the 150 TT is to start, not to obtain. Although i think that i only need 70 PIC and not 100 as mentioned, because the Flight time i have was obtained during an integrated course.

Someone who has flown in the US?
