Stupid people
Why is it that in the past weekend I've run into two supposed "RX-7 experts" who swore up and down that TurboII's came twin turbo? Their reasoning? That's what the 2 in Turbo2 is for. And they wouldn't back off until I finally told them I would pop my hood and show them my one turbo. Grrr.

That is there reasoning, the "2" in turbo2. I thought the same thing at one point in time. Not that I consider myself an "expert" but we weren't born knowing everything. You should feel honored to enlighten those who are in the dark. I didn't know the original turbo was a 12A Jspec that wasn't sold in the US.

Also, the 12AT never made it to the states by design. There have been a few imported however.
