you gotta pull the studs out and either get longer studs or just use a couple bolts to hold the rail down. if you compare the stock injectors to the RSX injectors, you'll see that the RSX ones are physically longer.

and they're 310 or 320's.. stock is like.. 240? i know i may be off by like.. 10 or so on each one of those flowrates

like posted above, you need longer studs and some washers/small spacers. As i recall about 1/4"-3/8" longer

240 > 310,

You will more than likely throw a MAP/BARO CEL because of the injector correction factor being too large. You will have to end up going 270 > 310 and tuning some of the fuel out manually.

I didnt realize the rust a had on there.. uhm yeah don't overtighten them if you aren't using spacers/washers. Just tighten em up snug so you dont crack the injectors.

Anybody try to put a rubber or metal bushing in the empty space on the new bolt? Probably would not accomplish anything but aesthetics. Just an idea. Do not have them so really cannot play with the idea.
