I reckon you'd have a hard time finding out the turbo specs, if they are indeed different (it could just be a different wastegate actuator to run a few more psi).
Standard wheels are
Compressor 46 / 65 mm
Turbine: 59.8 / 48 mm
I'm pretty sure the Yamaha Power badge is just a badge saying.........Yamaha Power, but from what I've read there were Fortuna and Fortuna Yamaha Power models. The Fortuna is just kit/wheels/suspension/interior, while the the YP one apparently makes 225kw. A couple of extra psi plus a cat back exhaust should put a normal IR-V/G-tb at 225kw.

Stock for stock a manual V7 Sti would eat a turbo 110 for breakfast up to 100kmh, they'd be about even from 100-180 though. The autos have ridiculously long gearing, 80 in first, 150 in second.
If you do check out the Fortuna have a look for the axle code on the build plate. In theory those models should definitely have factory LSD (B01D) and I'm also curious if they used a 3.9 ratio.
