Default How much flexability for different injectors?

I have a '99 FRC with stock PCM set-up and bolt on mods only (air filter, Kook's, Corsa, etc) and 106K miles. I do think the rear O2 sensors have been turned off, but that should be it. Lately I have been experiencing (for the first time since new) a situation where I have to hit the starter twice on each and every start-up. Just started about two weeks ago or so. I have been running Red-Line SI1 Fuel system cleaner (3 1/2oz per fill-up and a full bottle at oil change time), and I'm thinking maybe an injector or two may be leaking just a bit. I have a set of low mileage Z06 injectors in excellent condition that I am considering installing for the time being and I'm wondering if the stock PCM programming handle the change without going goofy on me?
I rarely visit the C5 Scan/Tune forum, so please forgive me if the question is a bit repetitious to some of you guys.
Thanks for any help withis question.

You will have to modify the IFR table in the PCM to reflect the larger Z06 injectors. If you don't, it will run rich.

Are you getting any DTC's?

No, no codes. I may just put them in and run over to MTI and let Jason's guys tweak things a bit. I'm still going to check fuel pressure as well.
Thanks
