The update/backdate turbo rule certainly doesn't impact the
Supra TT or RX-7 TT.  In both cars, the turbos were essentially
(exactly, I believe) the same throughout the model run.

I think Andy B. was referring to all of the turbo car restrictions
currently under discussion.  

Personally, I think the update/backdate turbo rule IS specifically
targeted toward the DSM cars.  I don't think it's a necessary rule
change.  I'm looking forward to running against some competitive
DSMs this year.
