Modded RSX-S injectors for more flow
Modded RSX-S injectors for more flow
Seems some of the guys on CRSX have been modding their stock injectors by removing the plastic tip and waffer to flow better, getting the flow rate up to about 550cc's. Seems like an easy mod and a great way to save money and get to 10psi easy. http://forums.clubrsx.com/showthread.php?t=411693

i think i might try this>>>>>> so remove the wafer from the injector and put the plastic piece and o-ring back on.... also change the setting on your emanage/aem ems from 310cc to 517cc injectors size
Titanium Metallic. You got a problem with that?

Rep Power: 350 I think a best idea for guys that need to upgrade their injectors is getting Comptech Injectors. They are brand new Honda injectors modded and rated at 520cc plus they come with a warranty in case anything goes wrong.

Emanage will not allow you to idle these injectors without a barometric pressure sensor code. Been there, tried that with 440's.
^As far as a 520cc, not only will you run into the baro senor code, if it requires the rail to be extended with spacers, they won't work for a stock d17 intake manifold.

thanks, nevermind then!
Me personally i am already running this mod on my k20 setup and have done the same for a boosted d17 running rsx injectors using emanage. no problems with his nor any code
well if they are already using the rsx injectors with the extended spacers then it will be no problem.

The MAP/Baro sensor code Andy is referring to is caused by the MAP sensor input and the e-manage'd ECU output being too much variation caused by the tune on the additional injection map, air flow map AND/OR injector correction factor. The stock ECU does not like to see a difference in the MAP input and output greater than .1V. It will ideally tolerate .05-.07 in variation and not throw a code.
All of this info was ascertained through hours of datalogging and note taking on the e-manage sometime ago when we 1st did it on the 7thgen.

please explain. But yes, with the aem, you can idle anything.
And as far as the hours of research, blah blah, Paul, you weren't even aware of this issue until I brought it to your attention. Otherwise, why didn't you warn me when I mentioned running 440's on the emanage?

Rep Power: 0 What I was saying is you are using the kpro for your k20 swap right? The point I'm making is on the d17, with the emanage, you can't idle an injector that's 440cc+ without throwing a baro sensor code.

Your found out after I had told you it probably will not work on 9/5/05. Over 1 year later Andy.
Don't tempt me to find my UBER old data logs of this too.

Rep Power: 510 i was running rc550 injectors for a couple weeks last year with no problems other then them hitting the tps and i never threw any baro codes with the e-manage 
thats what im saying.. the guy that i did the same thing on his d17 running emanage isnt throwing a code either
is it more possible i guess with the AEM...although i'd like to try with the modification of the tips....once you do this you can put the injectors back to 310cc correct? i don't have these injectors in front of me btw....thanks to anyone with some info
Possible? Sure. Probable that you'll get a CEL, I'd bet more times than not that you will....
The AEM will handle them fine. I am now running 750's and the idle is just as good as stock.

Rep Power: 510 how the heck would you get them back to 310cc when you are physically grinding off the bottom of the injector? unless you have some magic ungrinding tool, thats not going to happen. and like i said before, i was running 550cc injectors with no problem at all and no CELs while using the e-manage
