resistor box

[heist]

Hey guys,

i am getting abit confused with all the american sites so ill ask here...

for my OBD1 d16a8, will i need to use a resistor box if i use "DSM" 450cc injectors?


i beleive DSM injectors are the same as Evo ones?

[BiGANG]

doesn't the obd1 d16a already have the resistor box?

stock honda odb1 injectors are high impedance (saturated). If you run low impedance (peak and hold) injectors on ur car, u need a resister box to work. AFAIK, evo injectors are low impedance

[saxman]

you can also just wire individual resistors in(easier, imo)

[heist]

saxman, i have been reading up on both ways...people say that individual resistors add bulk to the wiring, where as a box looks cleaner...

heist, only need resistor boxes if the ecu is inferior and cannot drive those injectors.

what ecu are u running?

[heist]

i will be using uberdata...

yah, the resistors do add a bit of bulk to the wiring. Either can be made to like nice and clean. Either way works.

well i can get 450cc DSM injectors, clips and resistor box shipped for $95US

is that a good price saxman?

[saxman]

yah... not horrible... I think I paid about $50 for the set I use, but they seem to have gone up in price over the past year or two. I see the injectors go on ebay these days for $75-80, so that's not a bad price

you shouldn't need the clips though. the dsm ones will clip into the stock clips if you trim out a tiny bit of plastic on the injectors(literally takes 30 seconds with a razor blade)

[heist]

hmmm...maybe i can get him to drop the price then, without the clips....

OBD1 h22a injectors are peak and hold, but are the only OBD1 injectors that are...
