Before I start I want to thank everyone for taking the time to answer my previous questions!

If I install 24lb injectors on a bone stock motor, I would also need to upgrade the following?

Mass Air and TB to 75mm? or could I get away with stock 65? and what kind of HP gain would I see?

at some point down the road I want to go with a TFS system...Twisted Wedge Heads & Street Intake.

At what point do you need a computer/Chip upgrade?

Thanks again!

P.S. I get to get my hands dirty for the first time in several years as soon as my new tranny parts get here...can't wait!

consider injectors and your MAF a matched pair.

19# is stock
if you go to 24#'ers, you need a new MAF calibrated for it.

I have a 70mm FRPP MAF for 19# injectors for sale [Wink]
Also a spare 65mm TB [Big Grin] [worship]

if you have a bone stock motor you might want to hold off on installing the 24lb injectors until you add some more power to your motor. You won't gain any power with the 24's and you'll save some gas money along the way. Just a thought. good luck
