Looks interesting, supposed to be based on an is38 housing and good for up to 475hp. Considering this for my car, already on an accessport with a custom tune so I'd just need to go get a retune. Thoughts?

Yes retune is needed but not hard to do.

What about the upcoming VTT turbo? Looks promising based on the info so far and the intro price of $1500 seems really good. Not sure how spool and powerband would compare but it looks like both have plenty in terms of peak power.

Patiently waiting for anyone to post meaningful data on that Tomioka. VTT has provided far far more in the way of communication and data and it's not even released yet.

This is a nice option for $2100

You can get for less if you ask Ian@MAP for a deal or you can use the 5 or 10% coupon they generally have at Maperformance.

IMO, this blows the standard IS38 out of the water. Between the hybrid option (<$900), tomioka ($2100), and VTT ($1500), there isn't room for the $1400 option of the OE IS38, unless someone snags a monster deal on a used one...

I'm excited for someone to bite the bullet and post a review!

where did you come up with the Vtt price of $2500?

Probably a typo. Intro special is $1500.

Yep, sorry. Fixed that post.

The VTT is probably the best bang of the buck turbo you can get when its released for the golden price....why buy a brand new IS38 when you can get the VTT for $1500

Yup no point. Wish this was available when I swapped turbos but then again my used turbo cost me only $500.

Sounds like fueling is going to be required, so $600'ish more for the VTT, and probably $500 more if you don't get the intro price. I assume the drop in LPFP would help get the most from the Tomioka as well. At the end of the day the Tomioka and VTT compete at the same price point, after VTTs intro price is over.

Yes, however with the Tomioka you do get the turbo inlet, turbo muffler delete, and turbo blanket.

Blanket and muffler delete are worthless parts IMO, and an inlet isn't worth a whole lot.

VTT appears to be much better value.
