GA Realized that my secondary injectors are low impedance

I just found out my secondary injectors I have are low impedance. Which is why there not working. Is there anything I can do that easy fix, short of replacing them?

won't be easy if you have to put resistors in the wiring..sell them and get HI's?
what is your setup right now?
car,series,ecu,etc.

I wouldn't be surprised if you blew the injector drivers in the ECU. Without the high impedance or inline resistors, the current in the injector circuit would be way too high for it to handle.

i doubt it, the factory injector drivers are good for at least 3A at 100% duty. a peak/hold injector will pull 5A, so technically the factory ecu wont start to overheat until around 50 % duty cycle. i dont see it being a big deal running without resistors unless you do track days where you spend a lot of time at wot. he hasnt had any problems so far..

I'd say he's having problems.

Time to bust out the soldering iron to replace the transistors, buy another used ECU, or go MegaSquirt!

I don't really shift rev over 3500 because it REALLY doesn't feel like it wants to. Im about to send my ECU to RTEK anyways and I got an extra J Spec ecu if its smoked.
