hey i have to pass smog sometime soon in CA so i was gonna take off my turbo kit and replace with stock header and intake. i was just wondering if i have to wire up the old injectors in place of my dsm 440cc's right now with resistor box. i am assuming i do but i just want to know so i can avoide any hassle. the car is obd2 also. thanks for any help

 

bump, cause I'm due in april and wondering the samething.

 

The easiet way to pass is by installing all the OE emissions equipment (catalytic converter...etc), reinstall the OBDII ECU if your using an OBDI ECU, get a Greddy turbo EO sticker copy, and install the SMC. The SMC will allow you to trim the 440cc-550cc injectors to pass emissions easily and it's compatable with all OBDII and up ECUs. And if you don't have your secondary O2 sensor any longer due to a straight pipe you can always use the O2SIM to simulate the readings.

 

sounds good. i just dont want to be throwing any cel's due to the resistor box and injectors. any one have any experience with the ref

 

to the top! need to know

No, you will not. The resistors just increase the overall impedance of the injectors so that the drive transistors in the ECU do not overheat.

 

thanks alot for the help. after i take the turbo off and everything, what should the setting on the vafc be, keep them the same at around -38 at idle and so on..?

your V-AFC setting will determine how much fuel your injectors will dump. you will have to FINE - TUNE the car to run fine without the turbo. you will need a wideband for that becuz you need to know where you A/F Ratio is at. even if keep the V-AFC at -38 all around, you still don't know where your A/F Ratio at.

your best bet is to go back to stock injectors with stock ecu.

 

that would be a pretty big hassle to re wire the obd2 injectors and take out the resistor box just for smog and then put them back in the next day. any other thoughs

you do what you have to do.

you should have wired your resistor box in an efficent manner. all i have to do is move 5 pins and the my resistor box is disconnected or vice-versa.

here is a pix of how clean and simple it is:
