They can be rebuilt and put into your 82, but the turbo injectors are 135 bar instead of 115 bar, which are in the NA engines. You can bump up the pressure with a thicker shim inside the injector. But it's trial and error to get the pressure right. You have to take the injector apart and measure the shim, find a thicker shim. Put it back together and pressure test it. Then adjust again if the pressure is off.
