There are 2 updates to Maya 2012. One is free and one is for users on Subscription:
Maya 2012 SP1 + Subscription Advantage Pack = Maya 2012 SAP
Maya 2012 SP2 + Subscription Advantage Pack = Maya 2012 SAP SP1
The additional tools in the Subscription Advantage Pack is noted here:

If you own the Maya Entertainment Suite, how do you install Turtle with the updated Maya 2012? The solution is:
1. Install Maya 2012 SP2 or Maya 2012 SAP SP1 and use the Maya Entertainment Suite Product Key.
Maya Entertainment Creation Suite Standard 2012 = 660D1
Maya Entertainment Creation Suite Premium 2012 = 775D1
2. Install Maya again from the Maya Entertainment Suite but uncheck the items that you don't need. i.e. Backburner, Composite, Matchmover etc and make sure that Turtle is checked on.
3. When you run the updated Maya, it will register Turtle. I have included a video demo of this process:
