Default Resistance for 450 dsm's

I'm just wondering what kind of range I have in resistance for the injectors. I went to the local electronics shop and the closest I found to the 10 ohm 15-20 watt resistors were 12 ohm 15 watt. Would I be ok running with these resistors, or would I need the 10 ohms?

I had my shop order in some 10w/10ohm resistors. I didn;t want to take a chance with something that hadn't been used before.

I've been reading that 10w wasn't enough, so I didn't want to get them...

and you've never had a problem with the 10w cooking soon?
I guess I'm going back to exchange these then.
