You need to change the injector constant for the larger injectors, you may be able to lower the FP and get close but you will still need to log data to get them dialed in and I would highly recommend tuning Vs playing with FP. I have to ask why are you changing injectors? are your stockers giving you problems if so I would just go back with the stock ones for the few mods you have they would more then suffice.

Untill you add your other mods I would hold off and do everything at once then get the car tuned, that way you will save a few $$ on tuning. The other option is do what I did and buy the tuning and data logging software and start tuning yourself.

I agree with the others. With mods you have listed, stock injectors are fine. Now if you do heads and cam, 24's are more than enough. At that point you would have to go for tune anyway. 24's will support up to 450 n/a hp.

Don't do it until you change heads/cam.
