4.10's ftw! If it is running good then might as well go for the gears. It will feel like 2x as much power

If you're car is running a good air/fuel ratio now, injectors are going to help minimal where the gears are gonna give you seat of your pant performance. It also depends on how you plan to tune your car as to which is going to help more... Good luck

gears will deffinatly wake that car up! Well more then it already is, but i would wonder if the injectors and tune would be helpful so you dont risk running it poorly at all and just wait for the gears????
