Default 450's/resistor Ques. going back to stock, quick question

I'm wanting to put in my stock injectors for the time being, but i am hoping i wont have to rewire the harness and take the resistors out.
so will the stock injectors still work fine with the resistors in place?

the car is a 95 dx if that matters
thanx

im thinkin it wont work w/ the resistors because the y are 2 different type of injectors. saturated and peak and hold

yea i realize that but,
I thought my stock injectors dont requre as much amperage to operate, i figred it wouln't matter. I know they can be interchangeable one way, but not the other and since i added resistors to make the 450's work, i figured the stock saturated injectors would still work...
I dunno, i am problay way off with my interpretation...
I'm lazy and dont feel like rewiring them, I have a couple sets of them so, if i **** them up oh well, i just scared i might mess something else up

i'm thinking if you hurt anything it'll be your ecu not the injectors. how long will it take to rewire your injectors? it'll probably take longer to put the injectors in.

yea thats what i was worried about was hurting the ECU..
it wont take to long to just rewire them, I spent a while making them look all good and soldering them in and all, i just dont want it to be all hacked up after taking them out. and then in a month or so i will be needing to put them back in...

Here, outta my honda handbook:
<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by tHE oNE &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">
It is very important not to replace a saturated injector(stock) with a peak-and-hold injector(dsm 450's) becuase the additional amperage required to operate the peak-and-hold injector can destroy the ECU's drivers........ It is possible to replace a peak-hold injector with a saturated injector, since the amperage required to operate a saturated injector is lower and within range of the peak-hold injectors drivers.
</TD></TR></TABLE>

since i replaced the stock injectors in the first place like it says not to with the resistors in place, then i dont see a problem with going back to stock with the resistors still in place.

someone with more electrical know-how please fill in and tell me what you think

I'm assuming that with your stock injectors and the additional resistors you put in, your overall resistance would be nearly double? If you apply ohms law, this would mean that the amperage and voltage required to operate them would be off. I guess its similar in saying that, using a power supply of an appliance with a different appliance with a slightly different voltage and aperage rating?

Why take the risk?

yeah, quit being lazy and just redo the wiring.

Its not really not me being lazy, I dont want my harness all hacked up. I wanna take them out now which will require splicing in new wire to remove the resistors, and then put them back in a month or so which will require splicing the resistors back in and my harness will be all hacked up by then and im worried about having shitty connections after hacking it up to do this.

I was just looking for the right answer wether i take my *** down there and do it or not.

find a set of 88-91 crx injectors, in fact any car that the resistor pack came stock on and put them in. the are peak and hold and the same size as your stock ones
