You should cause seen tons of ct's with a's. Non of them were turbo a's tho. If it has a bigger compressor wheel its prolly just upgraded,

Turbo a's had bigger turbine housing and wheels.

Every CT26 I've seen off of a Supra had the A on it. The Turbo-A turbo has a stamp on the raised circular part next to the A. Type-A versions are a bit different.

There is a big difference between a turboA ct26 and a group A ct26. Getting your hands on ome of the very few authemtic group A ct26s would be a rare find youd make quite a lot of power with one too the hot side of the turbo is totally different

Why after 20+ years has nobody offered an upgraded turbine wheels to match the compressor??? The 57 trims already sell like mad. The turbine is the only thing that seems to be holding us supra/mr2/celica guys from making more power. Theres also the ct20B....hmm.
