If you don't want to do that and fork out $20, just go to Radio Shack and get these:

Just make sure you solder it well to the wiring and get some heat shrink tubing.

No don't get those, they aren't big enough. They are only 1/4 watt. Most people use 10ohm/10watt resistors, also available at radio shack. Becareful about using cheap parts though (ie, radioshack). If one of the resistors fail, your injectors won't fire. You know what that can lead to.

But then lots of people run without the resistor all together.

Decisions, decisions. One that I am going to have to make in the next couple of days as well.

I know what you mean. I run the same thing. No issues. Of course, go with what you're comfortable with.

Just so I am clear, you don't run resistors?

That's the way I am leaning because I haven't heard of any problems, but I still worry about frying a driver.

Sorry about that. Let me clarify. I run the same resistors as I posted. 10 ohm 1/4 watt. They're fine. I'm redoing my harness so I'm going to place them in a less hostile environment, but they'll hold up so long as they're installed properly.
