Considering Itachi said, all he wanted with Sasuke's eyes, I doubt he would have used any other form of torture. And I doubt there would have been a drastic change in damage to Sasuke had time manipulation began before he broke it. It just seems so odd, he knew Sasuke could break the genjutsu, and as you guys said, he knows he's been familiar with it, although its use of it was completely different, but somehow was genuinely shocked when he broke out of it? I honestly do believe that Sasuke had accessed some of his cursed seal chakra, otherwise why do so in the illusion? What would that bring to the table? It is as I said, either Itachi underestimated Sasuke or he did exactly what he wanted because he knows Sasuke better than anyone, and really shouldn't have been that shocked.
