Need Help Identifying this Carb

According to the previous owner, this was a "performance carb" that he purchased for his 1983 RX7 GSL.

Definitely looks like a Nikki .. however it does look different from the factory carb that is currently installed on the engine.

Can anyone identify this carb and let me know if there is anything unique or special about it?

it would have been ok just to post everything in one post instead of creating 3 separate posts.

Thanks Michael .. I will keep that in mind for next time.

The tornado intake drop in gimmick was kind of a joke. I thought members might get a good chuckle out of it.
The performance carb was more of a serious inquiry for a rotary engine.
The intake manifold wasn't rotary related at all. I wasn't even sure if I should post it on this forum.
