RSX with K24 Swap - Injector Issue
Having idling and partial throttle issues and my tuner/mechanic suggests either cleaning or replacing the OEM injectors. Cleaning will cost ~$20 per injector and I am stronly considering replacing them.
I was looking at the RDX 410cc (I like OEM) and they will cost around $250 from Xenocron (no "inexpensive" Ebay clones for me!). My question is that they are saying I need conversion clips which adds $50-60 dollars to the purchase and reading online, I understand they will plug in but with the connectors flipped over (reversed). Is this correct? Do I also have to dremel the injector or clips so they stay on tight?
My other option is to buy name brand aftermarket "QUALITY" injectors and I'm looking for suggestions. Thanks!

Re: RSX with K24 Swap - Injector Issue
I don't dare run at open throttle without a tune but partial throttle is acceptable. The problem is during idle and ramping up to cruising.
The seller told me not to push the car without a tune because the engine is running on a K20 map with increased fuel pressure to compensate. He also told me the current injectors are too small for a 2.4. So, I need a tune but I need new injectors before tuning hence my decision to adquire RDX injectors

Gotcha. I think that if RDX injectors and clips will cost you over $300... I would order a set of Deatschwerks 600cc injectors. They come with a plug and play adapter unlike the plugs that have to be wired in to use the RDX injectors and will never have to work hard to deliver the fuel needed to run your K24.
