SA/FB turbos..

Did any 1st gens ever come in a turbo model at all in N. America?? I always thought they never have in North America, but a friend seems to say that he has a turbo on his 1st gen, and it came stock like that... i don't believe him though...

None ever came stock in north america. There was a turbo model with a 12a and fuel injection, but it never came here.

Technically you can say NO FB WAS EVER MADE FACTORY WITH A TURBO IN ANY MARKET. Japanese market only made SA's there was never a JAP FB. So no US SA's were ever factory turbo charged
