Setting sun maneuvers let you make a trip attempt to throw targets, and the FAQ says that you can add your bonus from improved trip to this.
The question is, can you use a weapon to trip an enemy for a bigger bonus (or with a whip or spiked chain to do so at range with reach). The FAQ's (official and otherwise) don't seem to answer this question.
The complicating factor is that most of these are listed as having a range of touch, but the tornado throw has a range of melee attack.
So can you use a spiked chain to throw with
a. Only this maneuver
b. All maneuvers
c. No maneuvers
