if you ever need to know in the future check the resistance across the injector with an ohmeter. Around 0-4ohms will be peak and hold and higher around 12ohms are saturated.

ok thanx.. well im fukin stuck rt now!!! i thought i needed a resistor box cause my car was runnin like ****..
i start the car wit no issues n when rev it it wouldnt let me rev higher then 45k rpm and when i took it for a drive it would not let me get past 1st gear speeds even when shifted to 2nd n 3rd gear..and when would floor it it would jus boggle horribly..

i thought i would be since i needed a resistor box but i guess since that not my problem idk wat else it could be..
im up for any suggestions..

Do you have a chipped ecu that is setup for those injectors?

If not that is your problem.

no i didnt know u needed a chip for the saturated 440 Rc injectors.. i bought the ecu stock from a junkyard and the injectors were already wired on the harness when i bought it.. so lets say that my issue where can i get the chip for the ecu to run those injectors right??

yea i read ur sig but i didnt wanna look like a fool and ask u if u had any...lol
well i was jus thinkin that my prob was somewhere n the lines of tunning it correctly..but like i said im up for anything.. how much would it cost to get a chip to run those saturated rc injectors and is it hard to install n ecu myself?
