D15Z1 injectors different from others?

When I got my D15Z1, it came with a DX intake manifold. And when I picked up a VX manifold, it came without injectors. I didn't think this would be a problem, as I figured that all Civics and Integras used the same injectors. Now someone tells me the VX uses different injectors. Is this true? Are they just sperficially different, but have the same flowrate? And if they really are different, is there another more commonly available injector that might work (ie CX)?

Actually, I know for a fact that the typical D-series and B-series injector flows 240cc/min. Not sure about VX/CX, though.

If anyone wants to flip a few dollars my way, there is a guy local to me that can flow test injectors and give me a spec sheet on them for $20. I have a spare set of VX injectors sitting in the motor that I'm rebuilding that I can send in to get tested and cleaned. That way we can have definitive proof of what the flow rate of the VX injectors are.

It's $17 per injector but that's cleaning, new o-rings, and flow test. I don't know if it's a common thing to do on hondas, but it's fairly common on the older toyota trucks i'm used to. Most people get a noticeable difference and it's much cheaper than new injectors.
