Correct. In 1983 they offered a 12a turbo first gen. It had a carbed non intercooled 12a.

Re: first year for turbo ?

they made the turbo first gen pretty much everywhere but america.

BUT the question was "when was the first rx7 offered with turbo?" Not when was the first rx7 in america offered with a turbo...
