Nope... The 24lb injectors are there to supply more fuel which isn't needed ona stock motor.

I am using 24lb injectors with my stock fuel pump... I'm actually getting my MAF recalibrated tomorrow for the bigger injectors. Make sure when you get bigger injectors you have your MAF recalibrated in accordance.
