fuel injectors for turbo need good advice
what is peak and hold injectors with low resistance? also what do they mean by saturated injectors high resistance?
i ask this because i am doing a diy turbo kit and need to upgrade my injectors, i have never dealt with a turbo charged vehicle/motor so help is needed. I own a 94 civic withan ls motor in it, i only plan on running 7lbs until my money is right and i atleast get my other ls semi built to do good track numbers(if it ever happens), im sure i can probably run 11psi with good fuel managment but i want to feel this turbo thing out and enjoy before i get to crazy with it if my money is ever right to do anything internally. I was looking at the rc injectors and they had two different kind like i said saturated high resistance and low resistance peak and hold, i dont understand what that means. Also i traded for a set of dsm 450cc injectors and the guy said i could use my safc controller to control the fuel but should i get injectors that i need or just use the 450cc ones and he said i needed a resistor box from an early model civic.? sorry about the random questions but like i said turbo is new to me, ive ran an ls civic for 2 years now and i need more power

Re: fuel injectors for turbo need good advice
The injectors you have will work fine. Just use a resistor box like you said. Dont waste your time with an afc though. Take that money and chip your ecu and get it tuned using crome/uberdata/honda/neptune...either one will work fine.

Re: fuel injectors for turbo need good advice
i have the dsm 450cc blacktop injectors, are they compatible with my obd1 harness, and can someone explain what the resistor box will do for me and how to hook it up when time comes for me to do this diy turbo project also i hope you guys arent getting irritated about these turbo questions, sorry i am a newbie to turbo and i dont trust shops to do install. dont want the ever so popular civic to get stolen but yeah any advice or knowledge you guys have please pass it on, i am probably like alot of people on this board as in doing motor swaps or suspension work and whatever else but turbo is new to me and it intimidates me but after the first then the rest are like clockwork...............I hope
