Cams, why even consider injecters, unless your running like a 98% duty cycle on the stockers.

Your duty cycle would dictate if you need the injectors or not. Cams would do more for what you want.

The Injectors might be a neccesity but it might not, we need to know your duty cycle.

How close to the max efficency you injectors are running. If you were running a 98% duty cycle or something you would be in the market for like another 100-200 CC larger injector, but if its at like 75% your fine. The stockers are pretty large at 560 cc's so I doubt your running out of gas on that turbo without cams or alky. I would definatly get some cams first, the injectors are not going to help out any without the need, and if you were running close to maxing your injectors, jestr would have let you know when he tuned your car.

go for the cams...the injectors will really be pointless and not give you any significant gains unless your running 90%+ injector duty cycle which is doubtful...the cams will make a huge difference especially considering you have that 20g
