I'd stick with the 19lb injectors.....you don't have enough mods to need bigger.

Save the cash for a custom chip and dyno time.

I would not but an over the counter chip.

Get one custom burned on a dyno.

Many will offer several tunes with the 'flip of a switch.'

I would upgrade to 24# injectors, 19's may be enough, but just barely enough. The 19's will support up to 275 HP at 90% duty cycle, however, once you start to exceed 80% duty cycle, you may want to upgrade to the next size up injectors. And I can tell you that, the combo you listed should make at least 300 flywheel HP if not more. I would also upgrade the fuel pump to at least a 155 liter/hr. unit. Its cheap inssurance, the last thing you want to do is starve a motor of fuel.

Especially if you want to spray, the extra fuel will save that motor and allow you to run more power.
