RSX injectors.

SLP is coming out with a return fuel kit. Check that out when it comes out.

Yeah. I should have made that clear.

The fuel rail is supposed to be modified so that it'll take RSX injectors, right?

REDchirp should not be trustedREDchirp should not be trusted
he's prob running a larger turbo at 7psi... where as most of ours are smaller running at 7-8 PSI and it's not a prob... there is a huge diff. if his turbo is larger to begin with.... he might blow something real fast...and i'm waitin to see how long till he posts that his motor blew up

we never said anything about the rsx injectors...the return fuel conversion just converts the 7thgens fuel setup from that of a returnless style to a return style...like that of previous generation civics....now, opto has successfully installed rsx injectors on his factory fuel rail, so it can be done...but dont hold me to that...i believe that all you need is longer bolts to hold the fuel rail inplace because the injectors are longer...

Yuppers. RSX injectors will drop right in. Good luck finding them though. Hopefully enough RSX'ers out there have upgraded and we can start seeing more of them.
