You don't need bigger injectors til your talking bout making real horsepower (i.e. s/c, or turbo).
Stock injectors will actually handle quite a bit of power.

You need to be pushing big horsepower before you should require larger injectors. You would also have to buy or at least recalibrate your MAF for the larger injectors otherwise your engine would never run right. Injectors & MAF must always be calibrated for one another.

If he's looking to spend money, I would suggest the exhaust end of business as it's the more restricting of the two (intake/exhaust) Bigger TB, MAF, injectors do nothing in the way of increasing HP significantly unless there is a demand for it. Think of it as making your nose bigger to take more air in and all you do is walk all day. Learn to run first (exhaust, SC, Turbo, top and bottom end work) before putting a lot of effort into an area that is made to handle most mods without upgrading. It's a waste to put all that cash into the intake. Get gears and exhaust first, then the intake (if you're serious about adding an s/c or turbo later) Injectors are fine as-is unless you go with a large amount of boost or rework the heads.
