Tomei Arms Turbos

[marksuxass]

Just interested to see if anyone out there is using these turbos and their feedback about them.

[rob82]

Can only comment on the M7960 on an EVO9. It was an absolute waste of time - the difference between the std turbo @ 22psi and it was about 3rwkw at the same boost with about 400rpm more lag.

[N1GTR]

While speaking with the owner of Midori earlier this year he said they tried them and to stick with HKS.

[Beer Baron]

I've actually found them to be pretty good. the GTR upgrade ones can be a bit mild but they are a good turbo. I would be happy to use some if they were the right price. not much evidence around though so people generally go the more proven options.

Ive seen a few different versions of the kit. Doesnt the NEO kit come with pretty much everything (manifolds, rail, injectors, braided lines etc?)

Probably Garrett -5's: enough power with room to move.

Check out the RB26 dyno results thread, hundreds of results to sift through.

[K4L4M1TY]

Looking for some up to date info and impressions of these kits, especially the 8260 twin kit. Anybody installed and used these kits yet? A friend has just ordered a set for his mostly stock GTR and i'm a bit worried how they are going to go with lag etc.

[R31Nismoid]

Well given the other results, from the 7655 - that IMO - ridiculously laggy...

I doubt the 8260 is going to be anymore responsive

Waste of money.

manifolds you dont need for starters and from the results of the ARMS's kits you wouldn't touch them with a 10 foot pole.

[K4L4M1TY]

Seems like a bit of mixed opinion when it comes to these kits, still not happy they aren't BB's though. Guess we'll have to wait and see what comes of it. Thanks Nismoid.

[MAX PSI]

any updates on these tomei turbos,anyone else having good or bad results

tomei vs garrett

ive had gt2860-5 found them to be real good,went to gt2860-10 thinking making more power found them to be very bad,in compressor surge and lag

now im interested in finding out what these tomei m7655 and m8260,what size are these compared to garretts,response,power etc

thanks

[DVS JEZ]

Ye people have that issue with -10s...

That seems hella expensive. Could you not put that together with Garrett stuff for about $8k? Possibly less?

Turbo $3k

Injectors $1k

AFM/Dump/FPR/Pump/Rail $1.5k

Manifold/Head gasket $1.5k

Cams $1k

[Piggaz]

Well for starters you don't need those manifolds. That's $1000 saved.

Haven't seen a decent result with these Tomei things.

[GTR260]

I had the m7655 on my stock 260rs, the were on there a week! Absoloute rubbish, tell ur mate to not waste his money! They didn't make boost until 5000rpm and were very linear in the way they made power! They do look good though! Getsomd garretts, they will cost less and perform way better!
