when will injectors be needed?
Cams look a little difficult to install by myself. Do you guys think I would be able to do it alone, I have the tools, or should I take it to get done. If I take it to get done, where should I go? I live 2 hours from Vishnu. Or maybe a local mechanic? What do you think?

Straight denatured or methenal. Keep the stock injectors in there.

I am glad to read that. I didn't really want to buy injectors. I had read that injector sizing is related to both hp and boost, so I wanted to find out which one it was. Thanks for the help.
Blanket statements regarding mods and injector sizing are helpful as guidelines. But really what you need to do, especially if you're pushing the envelope is actually measure the injector pulse width and calculate the injector duty cycle. If you're over 85-90% you're beginning to run the risk of an injector going static.
well i that's all true. You will need Injectors and HP pump if you going to run higher boost,a and also if you going run SAFC or some source of fuel management, i would get bigger injectors. Think it this way, if your car mkae more power it will get thirstier,
Injectors are not needed until you have a full GT turbo upgrade or running extreme psi with the stock turbo. However....your tuner should be able to tell you what % of your injectors are running. He can help you determine what size injectors you will need to match with your application.
