Someone local is selling a Topline Performance Gasket set, comes with a MHG, just need to know if anyone has used these before.

Any inputs ??

felpro is junk as well...

I've had to replace the exhaust manifold, throttlebody, and EGR cooler gaskets so far... If I did it over again I'd get toyota gaskets as they're MUCH better made.

EGR cooler gasket is the wrong material entirely (paper instead of the stuff they use for exhaust gaskets), the throttle body gasket doesn't have the right size hole in it (I cut it out, but it's still not as nice as the real thing), and the exhaust manifold gasket was a different design entirely and doesn't seal as well...

Well I have never used a felpro EGR or exhaust gasket. As for the rest of them I have never had have a problem with them in my last 5+ 7M's. As always Toyota are the best gaskets to buy, but some times you can't get them (on a weekend, special order and need it now, off hours, low on cash) and I have yet to encounter a problem with a felpro gasket failing. But this is my experance with them.

i think i've got topline pistons in my NA right now, but used a stone gasket set. i didn't see much difference in the stone gaskets and toyota gaskets, but the toyota definitely felt better during assembly.
