And I see just about the opposite - no turbos in salvage yards. In Maine, since 2002, I've found 5 turbos (2 SPG's) - none wrecked. And I've found maybe 35-50 non-turbos. Just about zero wrecks all told. I have a '90 SPG, and salvage yard parts are HARD to find in the 6 yards I frequent. Pro's and con's? I think it has lots to do with maintenance history, and how you treat the car. Given half a chance, the turbos are lots of fun, reliable, and a pleasure to have, with about 28 mpg mileage. I've owned 10 turbos, no non-turbos in 24 years.
