What was I looking at? (Turbo+injectors)
 
My first time at a Junkyard I looked at some mitsu's and saabs after I finished filling all my pocktes with ---- for my teggy. I know nothing about either car, but I've heard 450's reffered to as "blue tops" so I jacked some. What kind of distinguishing marks are there on the injectore to tell whether I got 450's or some random ---- injectors? All I know is that they came out of a dsm and they have blue tops.

Secodnly I spent all day trying to rip off a ------- a turbo off a saab and oculdnt do it. I think it was an old 900. Anyways, the turbo was a garret .42 a/r. The sunovabitch had one bolt left connected to the DP and I couldnt get at it, really pissed me off I had to leave and let some ------ steal it. Anyways, are the .42 a/r garrets of the variety thats worth snatching or should I keep an eye out for the .48s and .60 and so on?

I'm new to the whole junkyard expoerience, but aside from the multitudes of coloureds I had an awesome time. :y

Well, for one they the injectors in question have a blue top to them. Second, you can only find em in 1st gen turbo eclipses with manual trans i believe. 2nd gen may have em as well(not sure), but i know 95+ don't have them.

^Right.

Anyways, Illoked over the injectors more carefully...they are blue on top, black body, green tip. Numbers are MDH275 and INP-065 on opposite sides. So...450's?

2nd Gens are black tops and are still 450s in manual turbo DSMs. :y

for the most part, yes. You could try to sell em to some N/A kids. The like the smaller injectors that are still an upgrade from stock sometimes.

All turbos are worth taking, so long as they are not asking like $75 for it at the yard.

I had a local junkyard around here try to charge me 150 for a 14b...and it was hanging on by a few bolts!!!
