Default Resistor question..

I measured my stock 92 civic injectors with a dmm and I got ~11.4 ohms. The dsm 450's I have read ~2.4 ohms, leaving a ~9 ohm difference. Do you think I'll be good with these resistors? Any better ideas?

9.1W-10-ND (part number from digikey.com, do a search)

wire wound, 10 watt, +/- 5% tolerance, 9.1 ohm resistor

The only reason I'd like to try this instead of the more common radio shack resistors or honda resistor box is to most closely match the ohm load, and because I've heard at least one person speak of a rougher idle with the radio shack resistors as compared to a honda resistor box, but this is just hearsay I don't know.

For $15 why not just go with the Honda resistor box...

I know that Digikey has a $25 minimum purchase anyhoo.

The 10k resistors from Radio Hack work fine as well.

I would guess that the person's rough idle you spoke of was because of tuning.

Yeah probably. If I can find a resistor box pretty quick I'll most likely just go that route. Thanks.
