Automatic Turbo?
This is just a hypothetical question, but do automatic turbo rx7's exist from the factory? Or do the turbo's always come in 5-speed trim.

The Japanese Turbo FCs used a different tranny than their naturally aspirated american counterparts.

Yep, there are. All FC's in Japan were turbo'd, and about half of them were autos.
