Am I doing something wrong, or being a complete idiot? Evo Injectors
I'm running a pair of Evo 560cc pink-top injectors on my new turbo setup (boost tube disconnected due to no tune). I'm running the OEM resistor box that came stock on my Accord as I am fairly sure these are low impedance injectors, I would double check but I have them already plugged in. From my research it shows that they are low impedance, but I am uncertain if the Honda box matters over the Mitsubishi one.
I started my car with both the OEM P0A ECU and a chipped P28 ECU on a 400cc/stock compression/bolt-ons H22 MAP and neither of them allowed my car to idle.
Will my car even idle with these injectors running on a stock/somewhat stock ECU/MAP? Or am I just being a **** and need to get it tuned to have it run period? I wasn't looking forward to having to swap out my injectors at the performance shop parking lot.

All you gotta do is measure the ohms across the injector pins to find out if you need the resistor box or deleted. 5 ohms or so is yes you need resistor...10 or so more and you need to delete it
you can damage your ecu in no short time with it wrong

No your car will not idle with 560cc injectors running off 240/400cc fuel maps. You nee to get yourself a 560cc/H22 basemap for that P28 or take it to a tuner. I would take it to a tuner if you're not sure.

Re: Am I doing something wrong, or being a complete idiot? Evo Injectors
I'll have to remove them, install my OEM injectors again, and install the 560's at the shop before the dyno run/tune. With searches I've done for them it seems to be the general consensus that they are high impedance as many people have to wire resistor boxes in with them. I was just curious if it mattered between the Honda or Mitsubishi resistor units. The Accord I have (94 EX VTEC) had HI injectors equipped stock along with the box, so I ASSUME I should be fine. Right? Is there a difference?

High impedance (saturated) injectors do not use a resistor box.

The Mitsu injectors will run fine with the stock resistor box.
The issue is the tune; so you have basically 3 options:
1) if you have a h22a basemap in crome you need to change the injector size to 560cc, which will redo the fuel trim for the entire map. The car should then idle and run, at least.
2) If you arent comfortable with doing that, reinstall the stock injectors and add the evo ones at the shop.
3) If you ask someone nicely on pgmfi.org, they may have a 560cc base map or may be willing to create one for you.

If you have a chip burner I can send you a 560cc H22 basemap.
I just assumed that if you had Crome and a chip burner that you would have already tried changing the injectors flow rate and battery offset to adjust the overall fuel trim yourself.

I have Crome installed, but I don't have a clue on how to use it (I've been reading a few threads and such to learn something) and I don't have a chip burner. I just swapped my 240's in for the meantime till I can drive down there and get it tuned. I'm sure I haven't been the only one to fiddle with my their car in the parking lot. lol
Yes, I did have the impedance mixed up. For the amount of research I did (As you've assisted me with before Ghost) I'm surprised I messed that up. Woops.

Honest mistake! It happens to the rest of us as well.
