Usually refered to Mitsubishi Eclipses GST/GSX

When ppl say DSM injectors it usually means Eclipse Injectors, Same goes for DSM Blow Off Valve(BOV)

Thanks. I've never heard of an Eclipse or a Talon, so they probably never sold them in the UK. Bang goes a potential surce of cheap parts, I expect!

Diamond Star Motors (commonly abbreviated to DSM) was a vehicle manufacturing division jointly owned by the Chrysler Corporation and the Mitsubishi Motors Corporation. The name Diamond Star Motors comes from the parent companies logos: a pentastar (Chrysler), and three diamonds (Mitsubishi). Three of the vehicles produced via Diamond Star Motors are also generally referred to as DSMs: the Mitsubishi Eclipse, Eagle Talon, and the Plymouth Laser.
