1986 Turbo and S inj. MAY be the same. Not base...

George,
The S and Turbo MIGHT have the same injectors, as that was the first year both S and Turbo had 16V engine (with the LH-Jetronic fuel injection). (Turbos had acquired 16V motor the year before.) I suspect the '86 Turbo, however, might have larger capacity injectors than it's 900S sister, but I'm no Turbo expert, by any means.
I know for sure, without a doubt, that the 1986 base 900 injectors and the injectors for the higher trim-levels (S & Turbo & SPG) ARE NOT interchangeable. This applies to 1986 to 1988 900 line imported to USA, for sure.
1984= Last year all 900s in US had 8V motor.
1985= Turbos are 16V, others 8V.
1986= S gains 16V motor.
1989= First year all 900s are 16V motor-equipped.
Hope this helps!
