Default Turbo prelude problem

hey im having a problem with my car

i have a 01 honda prelude boosted here some info on it

upgraded turbo in a Precision SC6031, still a .63AR, but upgraded to a 60 trim. A Benson sleeved block: hot tanked, squared and surfaced, Benson Machine sleeves installed with a .003" stepped deck, Benson bored and honed cylinders, Benson balanced and micropolished crank, CP 9:1 pistons and rings, Manley rods, some other goodies.

im useing a p78 gsr ecu with crome on it

the guy i got my car from had precision 880cc injectors low impedance he had a Resistor Box wired in

i changed them out for 750cc RR injectors


\DO I STILL NEED A RESISTOR BOX FOR THE NEW INJECTORS???

a) you need to get retuned for those injectors

b) are they saturated or peak and hold?

yes......injectors are the major factor for all your problems......you need a retune asap or you will be putting a motor in shortly after.

Do what the guy above you said, go get it tuned for those injectors. As far as the resistor box, I have no idea. As for S300 and Crome, I'd use whatever your TUNER is more comfortable with.

Even when downgrading, you must RETUNE to run the injectors properly

I wouldn't drive it until you retune it...... I run S300 for what it's worth
