Help educate a newbie!

I am looking into these rx-7s.
I am familiar with cars...just not w/ all the definitions and terminology on here.
What is:
S4, S5--Types of turbos?

T1, t2--single turbo, twin turbo?

What are all the trim levels
for 2nd gens and what does each trim level
have over the others?
I have seen:
GTU
SE
I know theres more...what are they?

How does cc's relate to lb/hr as domestics
rate their injectors?

Just so you all know I am a Fiero guy...
help educate me and maybe talk me into
selling it and buying an rx-7.
I am looking for a clean one around the
southwest currently.

Do yourself a world of good and check out the FC FAQ. It will answer pretty much all of those questions.

Ok S4 Turbos is off of an 87-88 Turbo 2 Model

s5 turbo is from 89-91 turbo 2 model.

Second generation turbo rx7's (87-91) run on a single turbo, where as the 93-96's run on a twin turbo setup. So T2 is reffering to the model of the car (a turbo 2).

The different models of the second gen are; Base, SE, GTU, GLX, Turbo 2

CC's is just a different measure to the lb/hr rating that the domestics calculate at.

Hope that answers some of your questions....
