Default Injector question

Will 450cc DSM injectors fit fine on my '95 SOHC 1.6L civic motor, or will I have to get RC injectors?

they will fit if you bore out the injector seals. The seals on your car will be a tad too small, but you can take them out and dremel them a bit.

they are going into my 89 CRX, which I am going to turbo, why would I need a resistor box?

oh, so if I go RC, then I won't need the resistor box and I won't need to modify anything?

depending on what engine harness you are using, CRX's come with resistor boxes...but since you swapped in another engine, chances are you dont have it anymore.

If you get RC Saturatd injectors then you should be fine you may have to bore out the injector port a little with a dremel

I don't remember if I removed it when I swaped motors. I think it is still there, I don't know why I would have removed it? *shrug*

I think I may just go RC, I'd rather do the plug and play, even though it will cost me double.

Here is a link to one of our tech articles for measuring your injector inpedance.

http://stores.ebay.com/Tuner-T....html

Low Impedance = Peak and Hold = 2-4 Ohms = Need resistor box

or

High Impedance = Saturated = 10-12 Ohms = No need for resistor box

Hope that helps. You have IM.
