It ended up being that just 1 of my resistors were bad! They were sittin in my local radio shack for 2yrs after all....?? And apparently if just 1 injector's is bad, then NONE of them work..... I just unwired the one injector clip(which By the Way I switched to OBD1 clips as too) and just running of 3 cylinders the car fired right up! Best of wishes man.... https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...?topic=42899.0
haha no ---- man. good to know im not alone. i actually installed them over 2 days due to lack of time. the first day i only did cyl #1 and the car drove out of my garage, and back into the garage the next day. tomorrow im gonna take the resistors back out, quick throw in some obd1 stock injectors (using stock ls map) just to see how that works, then try tossing in my old resistors again or perhaps go with a resistor box.

fixed!

i went to a local pick and pull and got a resistor box out of an ef si, wired it up and the car started. it was still idleing like ----, but i dont have my wideband hooked up so i dont know how lean it was. i went back into uberdata and added like no joke 40 % fuel back to the idle portion of the map, now its smooth idle at like 21-22 vacuum. (im sure its too rich actually).

so last question for right now, my fuel values at idle are right around 40 with 550's, or .5- .6 duty cycle. when converting injector sizes off a basemap, it gives me fuel values of around 25. any idea why i have so much extra fuel in it to idle properly? 25-30 gets a decent idle of around 14-15:1 on my friends gsr with the same injectors

weird, I got mine fixed too and now the car won't even idle without pedal assistance It idle's like crap and I pulled out 45% correction so it's now at -45% fuel and yet when I pulled the plugs I can see fuel puddled on top of the pistons, so I dont know

damn.my problem is that the car runs perfect until I shut the car off.then I have to wait like 30 - 40 minutes before I can turn the bitch back on.Im not sure what the problem is .Im running 450 eclipse injectors on a b18b with uber and inline resistors.this has happened ever since I turboed the car so I just dont turn the bitch off if its a short stop

You should leave it run a little before you turn it off. That's the purpose of a turbo timer.

large injectors and uberdata can be kinda tempermental with hot starts. ive heard some people have a lil difficulty with it.
