Default resistor box?

I found some dsm 450's for my turbo setup but they did not come with the resistor box, from what I understand dsm 450's are peak & hold injectors and they require a resistor box.

I want to know if any resistor box will work, or do i have to get a resistor box that was made for the dsm 450's?

No, you don't have to use a DSM one. You can get one from most early 90's Hondas like DA Integras and Accords. You can also make your own resistors.

Thank you much! I heard that you can get resistors from radio shack and use them inline with the injector wiring, do you know what ohms or whatever resistor will be correct for dsm 450's?

I believe you need about 8 ohms but don't quote me on that. Do a search in the Forced Induction forum, there are more than a couple write-ups on DIY resistor packs for p/h injectors.

Im running dsm 450's on my setup with the radio shack inline resistors, I used 10 watt 10ohm resistors, the article for it is in the tech section on homemadeturbo.com
