What Turbo and What Suspension do I have????? 850 1996

Is there more than one kind of turbo? I see people advertising their 850 and say they have HO (High Output?), T-5, and R. I am pretty sure I don't have teh R model as it's not the right color and doesn't have a spoiler. Is there such a thing as HO or T-5 in a 96 850 Turbo? I do have the "winter package" if that means heated mirrors, seats, and E/S/W mode switch. Does that make any difference?

Also, how can I tell if it has a "sport suspension". I have a real stiff ride, but I always thought all 850s had a stiff ride. I do have the ....sort of twisted point star alloys - does that mean anything?

Is there a site to go to that lists all the standard and optional features for a 96? Is there a place on the car that identifies how it came from the factory?

Thanks in advance!
