Typically the "Turbotap" refers to the jumbo plug tap that was only sold for the TG-16. All other systems, Duo (US and JP), PCE, SGX, LT, or whatever use the smaller one. So, you are either looking for the "Duotap" (US name), or "Multitap" (JP name). They are white, where as Turbotaps are black.

Yeah, all the controller stuff is the same PC Engine-wide (including the SGX, see the PCE logo on it) except for that fugly-ass TG-16 with its jumbo ports.

Here is a page that lists any Multitap you are likely to ever see. The 5 port NEC-made one (the same thing as a US Duotap) is by far the most common one.
Any of these will work on SGX. (http://www6.airnet.ne.jp/wataru/pce/pce_tap.htm)
