Default What car what turbo?

I wanted to know if there is a cheap'o' way of geting a turbo that will fit on a D16Z6, the motor is not in a honda, its in my sandrail, but I Was just wondering if there is a car I can pull one off of that will be large enuff for the D16, I know what cars have them, but do they sell them cheap at wrecking yards? I know of a stock/wrecked eclipse and a sabb that are in the paper (parting out). Both are stock turbocharged. Keep in mind this will not be for a daily driver.

Saab, Mitsubishi... DSM ones...

No idea really, but I've heard using the Saab on a d16 works well.

Called the guy back (with the sabb)and he said he still has the turbo and would sell it to me for 150$, I said ok and told him what I wanted the turbo for and he said he has a Civic, and he said thats not a bad idea and he said hes keeping the damn thing and not going to sell it anymore.. Fu@king A$$!!! Does anyone know of a cheap Turbo for sale?
