Default Junkyard Fuel Injectors?

I'm just wondering if anyone has a list of fuel injectors I might find in the local junkyard that are atleast 300cc that I could use for a mild turbo D16 build. I found this guide:

http://www.robietherobot.com/Storm/f...ectorguide.htm

But noticed it doesn't list any European stuff or minivans or anything, and just wondering if anyone knows if any of that stuff will work for me. I just want to have lots of options when I get to the junkyard, not sure of my odds of finding some of the cars in that link. Thanks for any help.

dsm 450 (eclipse), evo's are 550's (?)... Not a "direct" fit, but they can be used...

DSM's are the Eclipse/Talon/Laser injectors, right? Are the higher flow DSM's found in non-turbo models as well, or only the turbo ones? Basically the local wrecking yard has a U-Pick yard of 1998 and older model vehicles, and all injectors go for one base price. So it doesn't matter what they're off of, I just need some common 300+ cc injectors from pre-98 cars that I could snag. Chances are there won't be any turbo Eclipse/Talon's, but there are commonly some Saab's and Volvo's and BMW's, I just don't know if those injectors are usable in an EK.

non turbo ones are like 275cc I think. waste of time. the auto injectors are pink top and 390cc the best to get are blue top dsms that are 450's besides the jdm yellow tops that are 510's.

I wouldn't mess with DSMs. I'd go for EVO injectors. $25 more, but you get 100cc more and they aren't 20 years old.

Nowtype, is there a guide on here to converting the evo injectors to fit our fuel rail? I couldn't find one.

My car already has the resistor box, but from the threads about the injectors - i couldn't work out whether or not they needed physically modifying ?

Edit : realised that its just a case of modifying the clips.
Thanks.

If you search my name, I explained how to install the injectors to someone about 2 weeks ago. It's really simple. There was a writeup for YEARS on HMT that would be helpful as well, but once that site was sold, the write-ups vanished. I'm sure there is something in the achieves on here, but it's stupid easy to install these injectors.
