What model of Hitachi turbos on FD?

Just curious of exploring replacement option, there are a host of turbocharger specialists out there. Most want to know the model number of the turbos we use or have them already listed as HT12(?)

Yes, they are HT-12's.

Greg, check out this website: http://www.marx7.org/infocenter/faqs/3rd_faq_2.html It's one of my FAVORITES, since it's got all the same info found on http://rx7.voodoobox.net/infofaq/bguide3g/bguide3g.html, but in much more detail (such as the manufacturer of all the major parts). For example, it specifices the turbos are Twin Hitachi HT12 turbos w/51mm turbine & 57mm compressor; the fuel injection is a Bosch L-Jetronic based Speed density system, the diff is a Torsen torque-sensing limited-slip differential, the rack-and-pinion steering has engine-rpm-sensing variable power assist, etc.

Basically, a lot more precise, detailed info. Not sure why it isn't included in the sticky under "Buying Guide"... Heck, I bought my FD based on this website
