Hey guys i hope this question isnt to dumb for anyone but i have had nothing but issues the last 2 years with my motor with one thing after another breaking and still can never get it to run good. I am pretty much ready to throw in the towel and get a new motor because i have already spent more then a new motor would have been. My question is i was looking up motors and nothing is label real good with what motors are which. I have a 1999 GSX and my first question is which motor should i look for because when i search most things say without turbo. Are the Motors the same but without the turbos in the eclipses of that year because thats how most of the websites seem to label it. I hope links dont bother people but here is what i was looking at. Is this the right motor? http://www.carmonkeys.com/1999-MITS...zDjzSCCv_aZ_4rN62dCGg2nr-IVV_OgiF0aAtkB8P8HAQ i saw ones that said with turbo but all my turbo stuff is new so i dont need a motor that comes with a new turbo because mine is brand new. please help me out or point me to a place that has them. Also whats a good price on a used motor?

My 2nd question is what do you think would cause an injector to melt down at that injection tip? I pulled mine after it stopped running and the injector was done for. Any ideas?
 
I would try to make sure it matches the corresponding vin number.. Says on the website 5th digit Y.. Probably because it only comes with a long block and manifolds with no turbo bolted on?

A melting injector could be backfiring in that cylinder or your engine overheating. Do you have any mods and what symptoms/problems are you having with your current motor?
