From my info.... SC, but I've been deceived to before

The gauge on the curtain airbag mount is a blitz vaccuum gauge. Rotarygod also felt around for the turbine connection and couldn't find anything......

RotaryGod looked and his personal opinion, which I trust, is that it is SC.

yeah--because the 4 port is a little better for FI per all of the previous threads on here--plus RE Amemiya (sp?) already has a turbo unit for the Auto RX8 in Japan. I am concerned about the durability of the transmission with such an application.
