Resistors for injectors?
I'm going to run some low imp injectors on my high imp car, ok i have looked at 2 webpages and have gotten 2 different resistors to use, one said use 10 watt 10 ohm resistors and the other said 20 watt 10 ohm resistors. Also I found the 10 ohm 10 watt resistors at radio shack but not the other, also they were pretty big to, any body got a pic of what they should look like and which is the correct one to use? Thanks for your help.

Doesn't matter. Both 10W and 20W will do the job. It's hard to describe what they look like. Generally, resistors 5W and larger look like little ceramic bricks with a lead out each end.

The original ones in the solenoid resistor package are pretty large also. Attached is a jpg (hopefully) of the original with and without the aluminum cover over them. http://www.teamfc3s.org/forum/showth...threadid=33353
Those are 6ohm in the factory package. Ten is just fine. RadioShack.....10ohm white bricks....one per injector.
