Well - I have some used ones on the way, which I purchased from a guy on the clubrsx forums - but I am waiting on them yet....As I said before, they will fit the rail and intake manifold with no issues. The only two issues that remain to be resolved are the mounting stud length on the intake manifold, and if the rail clears the TPS. If it does, than you are good to go. Once I receive them in, you'll all be the first to know....

Rep Power: 312 Update -
Thanks to Dezod I was able to measure the gaps more accurately (Dezod donated a brand new rsx type S injector to the cause - Props to him!
).
It appears that the stock fuel rail, plus injectors will fit, but only by approximately .05" or so - so it will be a tight fit, but it should work!! I didn't actually install the rail on my car because I need to use it tomorrow, and can't afford something to go wrong at the last minute!
However, checking the clearances with those on my car, I'm about 90% certain that it will fit. The only issue I see that MAY cause a problem is that pipe that is welded to the top of the rail. That can be ground off though, and a tube run if that's an issue....
So....until I receive my remaining injectors from a yahoo on clubrsx - I can't be 100% sure....so, if you do this upgrade and it doesn't fit, don't yell at me, because 90% ain't 100%!

Rep Power: 334 once this thing is confirmed working. Do you think this will change the turbo kits for D17's in the future? Do you think every kit will probably just come with the upgraded injectors + some type of fuel computer? Is this the better fuel solution for forced induction? pros / cons?

I think it will change things a little - but you have to remember that new rsx-s injectors are like $95 / piece!! Adding new injectors to a turbo kit is going to cost a LOT....Used injectors may be a lot easier to find, but of course, they are used. The rsx-s injectors are rated for around 330cc's around 50 psi I believe.....if you had the emanage, and a return system (such as I have) you can bump the fuel pressure up a bit, which I plan on doing. Maybe around 55-60 psi or so, just to squeeze more fuel out. Granted they are more expensive than RC engineering injectors, but are a direct replacement (ie, hardly as much work installing them than the RC's).....

Well I just got them - but I would like to flow test them as well just to be sure before putting them in the car, that way there's less chance that I will damage anything....

Of course, SF hasn't been much help with my manifold either - so I can't really do much until I get that too......

Rep Power: 312 Ok - just received my injectors back from Mirage (thanks again bro!)...
The RSX-S injectors flowed pretty consistant, I am throughly impressed! At 43.5 PSI, here are the results:
injector 1 - 342cc/min
injector 2 - 339cc/min
injector 3 - 339cc/min
injector 4 - 341cc/min
injector 5 - 337cc/min
4 of the 5 injectors were used, with about 20,000 miles on them....These seemed to held up well for the milage....and I only paid $50 for them!
So - flow rate is roughly 340cc at 44 PSI - bump this up to 50 PSI and flow rates should increase to a decent # (possibly around 360cc's).
This is good news - next step is to install them. The plan is to possibly see if they fit, but I don't plan on running them until my turbo kit is in (the emanage would need to be tuned due to difference in injector size - and I don't plan on paying for tuning twice).
