Yeah. Probably a nick name like the GT37R aka PT-67R aka T3or4/T67R. When others or myself use S in a turbo it's usually the compressor cover. GT35RLS = R: ball bearing L: water cooled S: compressor cover

There is also a GT4276R which has a 76mm inducer and 102mm exducer compressor wheel. This is a Precision only turbo I do believe as I have not seen anyone else sell this except for Full Race website BUT when I call them they state it is a misprint and should not be on the site

I believe the GT4276R is a Precision built turbo which uses one of their 76mm compressor wheels with the GT42 turbine wheel, center housing and compress/turbine housings.

This is the turbo that I run on my Supra and it is a really nice turbo.
