Default Rich Problem!

I just got my set up completed lastnight, the usually t3/to4e on a d16y8 Acura 1.6EL. I start the car up and she's running pig rich at idle. I'm not sure whats the problem. The fuel is managed by 450cc talon injectors and the AFC hack. Right now teh AFC is set at -50 which I know is not normal and at that setting the wideband O2 is reading 12.5 a/f at best.
We check all wiring and ther only thing that seems off is the injector resistor pack. When tested with the mutli-meter, it only seem to get 6ohms of resistance. Now I know alot of inline resistors that people use on these set-ups call for 8-10ohm resistors. Could the resistor box just be going out, and thats why I only see 6ohms? Would there be a big difference between 6-10 ohms on resistance that would play a big role in leaning out the injector?

help please!

Looks like the ohms have nothing to do with teh pulse width, just have to do with the drivers on the injector. So, I'll try and lower the stock fuel pressure to clean things up.

Hey, it's funny you posted this article, I just tested my resistor pack and it has 6 ohms of resistance as well. I was wondering if I might run into any problems if I used it.
