any body know where i can get heavy duty resistors for use with 1680cc inj. and PFC? and what size i need?
do they go directly inline w/ the stock connectors?

Radio Shack.

To make a long story short (do a search! hehe)....

Most people use 10 ohm 10 watt. I went with 10 ohm, 20 watt. Some use even lower like 5 ohm, ?? watt.

Mine work. I can't say anything about the others, but 10, 10 is a popular choice and seems to work too.

Garfinkle used 25 watt mounted in heat sink case ,he screwed them onto a alum plate placed near the ecu with other resisters that replace the missing solinoids

If your running a power FC you don't need to put in resistors to replace the solinoids.. you can just pull out the solinoids an chuck em in to the woods, the car will run just fine because the power FC doesn't give a **** about them and won't go in to any kind of error mode etc... I've actually cut all that shitty wiring and plug crap out of my harness and the car runs great...

Also I've been running .5 watt 9 ohm resistors in my car now for over a year and a half and I have several friends who have been running them for about a year now and we've had no problems what so ever using them..
