I was wondering in what year did they first start putting turbos in FCs?

First FC Turbo came out in 1986 in Japan.

I think all the RX-7s from the FC and after were all turbo in Japan...none were NA. I don't know about the FB, but it might've been NA in Japan during it's production.

I think all Rx-7s in Japan became turbos in 1983. Wasn't there an 85 FC in Japan?

the 85 in Japan is the same as the 86 here. I think the first turbo was an FB, i think it was an option.

The "Turbo I" came out the same time as GSL-SE. I think in 83-84 Japan had the six port 12 a or the optional turbo 12 a for FBs.
