I do not believe they are a direct plug in. You need a different fuse or resistor box or something. I am not exactly sure, hopefully someone else can give further details.

Are you OBD1 or OBD2? If you are OBD2 you will need a resistor box. You will need DSM clips no matter what. IM Sonny. He will take care of you. He sells the resistor box (if needed) and the clips with a great wiring diagram.

When you are ready to install, do this...

We all know using DSM 450cc injectors is a cost effective alternative to RC injectors. However, most people have problems installing them due to the the larger physical size of the DSM injectors. Some choose to bore out the stock bottom seals and some choose to the force fit method. Some say the injectors should sit flush to the seal, and some say it shouldn't. Well, I'm hoping the information that I'm about to share will help a little. Certain information may or may not apply to your setup type but I'm sure you'll get the idea.

1. Injectors seals: Napa sells an injector seal kit that contains seals for Civics and Integras. Because I have a Civic, the taller Integra seal works out perfect for me! If you don't need the complete seal kit, just go to Acura and buy only the bottom seal, or try to find some taller seals that have the same outside dia.


2. Bore out the bottom seals: I find it much easier to bore out the seals with a Dremel and do it in the manifold. I simply use a stock manifold that I have sitting around and use it to hold the seals. It only takes seconds to bore each seal!


3. Finished product: If done properly (which is extremely easy), it will look like stock.


4. Injector tip protruding distance: This is the good part. With the properly selected bottom seals, the injector tip protruding distance in the manifold can be the same as stock and still allows the injectors to sit flush on the seals! Btw, the injectors should go on the seals with slight friction.

Stock injectors with seal.


DSM injectors with taller seal.


5. Installed DSM injectors: The injectors fit very nicely in the JRSC intake manifold with the taller seals.


Here's a closeup, nice and flush!

Because he will most likely be using them in his HONDA with the AFC Hack. x 5097840670
