Resistor box confusion
my first question is about the resistor box for the injectors. i got this from hondata.
"Near the brake master cylinder on OBD I cars is a connector that distributes power to the injectors and a number of sensors. Verify with a multimeter which wires go to the injectors. Cut all 4 and connect the wires coming from the injectors to the resistor pack. Connect the power wire from the resistor pack to all 4 of the unused wires coming from the power connector. OBD II cars may have this connector somewhere under the intake manifold."
i'm getting confuse when it says to cut all 4 of the wires coming from the injectors to the resistor pack. does this mean i cut all 4 of the yellow/black wires coming from the injectors to the power connector, then connect the red/black wires from the resistor box the yellow/black wires coming from the injectors? then after i connect those red/black wire to the yellow/black wires going to the injectors, i tap the yellow/black wire from the resistor box to each of the unsed yellow/black wires coming from the power connector right?

No, four of the wires @ the connector go to the injectors, and one of the wires at the connector has switched 12V power.
After making that clarification, please DO NOT follow Hyundaidata's directions. Cut nothing on your harness. Go to the junkyard and get a male 8 pin plug off a Civic or 90+ Accord or something, and splice the resistor box into it so that the resistor box can be plugged in and out of your car, so you don't require rewiring to alter your injector configuration later.

Yep, dont cut any of your OEM wires. Go "Solderless Style". Heres my write up on how to do it: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=736737
My clean resistor box install:

I used plugs so that I can go back to stock [high impedance injectors] by simply unplugging the resistor box, and replugging the two connectors, essentially taking the resistor box out of the circuit.
