K20 Acura RSX-S Fuel Injectors & S/C

I have a question regarding the rsx fuel injectors and the hbp s/c. I was considering getting the k20s off a member in the bm, but I dunno if I can run stock fuel injectors on a hbp or would I need to upgrade. I think siggy did it on his swap, but I wanto know if I really need them?

I've heard of people running stock injectors just need great tuning and FPR to boot.

You could also use 310cc RDX injectors heard those work too, Siggy is using 360cc S2K injectors.

s2k 360cc flow rate @ 43 psi

not sure if rsx will fit on J32...

we need something like this Okada Ignition coils but it's too expensive and we don't have something for J engines

MSD make a similar product for DIS, but also not sure if it's gonna work...

I think there is only a certain amount of tuning you can do before you reach a plateau where injector upgrade becomes almost a necessity, especially with HBP. If S2K injectors have higher flow and are guaranteed to be compatible, why not go with them? I am sure you can find some for less than brand new cost somewhere.

are you still parting out, if so, would you be willing to sell the injectors?

He was only considerng parting out for a turbo kit in which case he expressed to me that he would almost without a doubt keep the injectors.

Then there's my kit, tried and proven and in excellent shape. People always try to save a buck, but in the end, disaster, take a look at the vvv666net site, logans old kit. seems it was a complete failure and waste of money. Mine, you just bolt on and go. And you can thank allmotor for that. look here... https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...hlight=thinjim

what is mainly the difference between your kit and his kit other than the obvious? what made his turbo set-up failed? Is it because of tuning, 3.5 swap, or something else?

You can always buy another set of 4 and sell two to someone doing the same as you. Shoot me a price if you end up with two extras.

NO what we mean is you will need 6 S2K injectors...since forced induction pushes more air into the engine, so to compensate you need more fuel. 2 less injectors would provide you with less fuel.

sig, how much did you pay for your injectors? The place on ebay is trying to sell me 6 for $529. Is that a good price? I had no luck w/ the forum, but if I went w/ samir's rsx ones what would be the downside? Their only like 60 compared to 529

It's not magic, throwing in larger injectors doesn't guarentee anything except that the ecu will shorten the pulse of the injectors because they are larger.

Big injectors = ecu shortening the pulse
stock injectors = ecu trying to lengthen the pulse if needed

Pulse = the time that the injectors stay on spraying

All you need is a piggyback and a good tune. That will help whatever problem or fear you're having of running lean/rich/or whatever it is you want.

Stock ecu's will always compensate for whatever it is you throw at them.

Tuning is everything.

with what? cause you should really be OK with stock injectors for now if you'll just boost it to 6psi, that ofcourse with e-manage tuning imo...

It's always good if you are going to run HBP to Emanage tune and take it from there, it may be fine...better than wasting money on injectors if you don't need them for your setup

no. i said, w/ the emanage you should be fine running the hbp w/ stock injectors

dude, seriously...


you can use your stock injectors using any type of piggyback, even with comptech's ESM, the only reason why most people use the blue e-manage is that it's proven to work with j32 engine real well and they get more out of it

with the ESM you are limited on tuning and basically will push your injectors to death.

with the e-manage it can have a total duty cycle of around 80% at 6k RPM which is safe and you can still have more room for improvement (power)

BTW, i'll let you know if i still have my HBP...
