Default Denso Starters

Anyone using a Denso starter in their Evo. Looking for a good reliable and affordable starter. Back in the 80's I was a Chrysler mechanic for many years and I know for many years Nippon Denso made starters for chrysler and worked very well, Just wondering if they were the same along with the quality and reliability. Thanx......

Thats what is in my 98 king, although I did have to put a new starter clutch in it. I belive it was the factory starter

I bought my Evo used but the starter that came on it had a sticker on it with the Denso name. I replaced it with a Denso starter and believe it's the exact same if not better quality and has been turning the motor over great.
