Default What do I need? Difference between "Saturated" and " Peak and Hold"?

I'm in the process of buying new injectors for my setup. I'll be running no more than 8 psi on my setup. I'm using a P28 OBD-I ecu with the Hondata S200. How do I know if I need the "saturated" or "peak & hold" injectors? My setup is a 1999 Civic Si B16A2 coupe.

-Thanks in advance.......

You'll need saturated injectors.

Saturated injectros would be the easiest.

At 8 PSI you wont be making a lot of power. So for "plug and play" injectors as hondaguyEF put it, you can get some RC engineering saturated 550's or 650's. The 550's should be good for somewhere around 350 HP and the 650's good for around 400-425 HP.

Would the 440's be too small? That was what I was going to get. What HP limit would the 440's be good until?

440s would normally support more than 255hp. However it all depends on your other fuel system setup - fpr, fuel pump etc..

I have a Walbro 255 but *stock* FPR and fuel rail. Is this going to be a problem?

why not?

btw, to answer second question:
saturated = high impedence injectors...
peak/hold = low impedance injectors and require a resistor box...
