yep, govt. cheese is the worst... only good for cheese soup.

like max said, don't ask this question. if you watch the main page on this forum here.. you'll see this question pop up EVERY DAY. click on search, advanced search, scroll to 1st gen specific, type "12a turbo" or "tii swap", click enter, smile at the rediculous amount of content that will appear.
