I have a fair setup minus heads and I run 24#ers because one of my 19s were bad but mine runs just fine.

280-300 is about the max for 19lb injectors.

Injectors won't give you any more horsepower. They will supply more fuel if more fuel is needed. If you aren't making enough horsepwoer to require more fuel then bigger injectors will do nothing for you.

if we're going with when the injectors would be installed...catback, x pipe no cats, RAI, udp, (those are installed now) t-body and plenum, gears, headers, and maybe a tune. that would be in 3 months of course
