Tomie Expreme manifold ??

[2.240s]

Thinking of going with the Tomie Expreme manifold for my redtop w/ s15 turbo, anybody got one and how is it holding up? any info before i drop the ca$h , thanks.

Go with the GReddy manifold.

We had a customer that was willing to drop dime on an Expreme and it gives a good hp increase with moderate torque decrease (to be expected due to runner layout) however the only diff between his GReddy and the Tomei was <5000 RPM and it was 8hp. The JUN Sheetmetal Intake manifold is even more exagerated than the Tomei and a REAL Jun will cost upwards of $2600!!!

Stick with the proven manifold for $400 that increases hp with minimal loss of torque and you will save time (waiting 4-6 weeks for delivery), money, and get the real gains you want.

Hes talking about the exhaust manifold. Tomei doesnt make a Intake Manifold that i know of. Anyways, Ichiba is a off brand company and they make a copy of the Tomei Manifold for around $375. Might want to give it a try.

The tomei manifold is very easy to install and take off. It also has years of research on a dyno in its design. Buying a copy doesn't mean it will perform exactly the same way as another product. It has a nice power band. It gives you a longer steady pull in torque. For its price it is very cheap. I have know a lot of people in japan who have bought it just because it was a lot easier to install.

A copy will give the same results if it follows the same runner length, design, and flange style. The big question is when will it crack? All Tubular manifolds will crack eventually, even the highest of dollar manifolds.
