No more then mild stage 1's or AC injectors.

Once you start adding injectors to the mix, your going down a slipery slope.

stage 1s will add the power that you want and you wont have to get a turbo or performance HPOP. Joebob is right, plan on a tranny

Alright guys thank you for the info. The tranny ordeal isnt going down well but i guess I'll eventually have to replace it one of these days anyways. Thanks again

Another question. If i put stage one's in will it make it roll smoke or make it smoke a little more? How much power do they put? Will it hurt anything since i have a TS 6 pos chip in it?? Sorry just a little nervous

You will smoke a bit more with the stage 1's, but not excessive. You should get the chip reburned to take advantage of the added fuel capacity of the new injectors.

With my 1's and tunes, the smoke is very manageable... Definitely get a reburn from a custom tuner.
