they are all different but as ant said the keyway insert is removable or you can cut the locators off.plus nowdays most map sensors on ebay come with a free new plug and wires that suits.

Borg Warner S366 is the go for 3.8L V6. They are more forgiving when matching them to a set up, as is a 3582R. The cost would be the difference here.

BW airwerks only come in bush not ball bearing but have a much larger shaft then Garret bush turbos so nearly match for longevity but smash the price of garret by 50%

Just a quick question. I have got myself Rochester 1000cc injectors. These are Low impedance. Will these work with the delco?
