need help on injector resistors and where to wire

I have been searching for a few days and can’t seem to find what I’m looking for. I have a 1994 and I recently switch to 1600cc Bosch top feed injectors. I need to know which wire at the ECM to wire the 10k resistors to in order to be able to run these injectors without burning up my injection on my power fc.

I believe the modern Bosch injectors are high impedance and don't need resistors. Are they older injectors? Where did they come from?

The injectors were purchased new about 15 years ago and never installed until now

You trust an injector that has been sitting on the shelf for 15 years?

My advice would be to buy new injectors. Those are 1970s technology and have terrible spray patterns compared to a modern injector. You will have a safer and better running car.

I bought them back when I first started messing with this car then life happened. 15 years later I’m finally getting to put it together

Yeah I would pass on installing those injectors. 15 years ago that's all we had, now there's so many better options. Those had terrible spray patterns and were very inconsistent.

Do you already have a fuel rail? FPR?

Yeah, I would ditch those and get some 2200cc EV14, they have gotten cheaper compare to 5 years ago.

Do not use those injectors. Even if you sent them off to be cleaned and they actually worked, you're taking a HUGE gamble. Don't play that game.

so its 10 OHM resistors typically with low impedance injectors not 10K, huge difference.
