So what year are you working with? Is it a 95 like your name suggests or not? Cause 95's had mass air if I am correct, its what 91 and up had mass air? But anyway with what you have right now you really don't need to upgrade your injectors. If you do you may run into some problems with it running too big of injectors. I'm not exactly sure on that but I do know you don't want to go bigger than what you need. IF you do decide to upgrade the injectors too make sure you calibrate the mass air for the lbs injectors you are using or you WILL have some problems getting it to run right.

If your car is a 1995 you already have Mass Air. If you car is a 1986 - 87 or a non-California 1988 you have speed density. Changing to mass air does not require larger injectors. If you do a H/C/I or add boost then you MIGHT need to increase your injector size. projectresto83 you where close, 1988 california cars has mass air and in 1989 all 50 states had it.

Injectors won't increase horsepower on a stock engine, MAF actually loses like 2 horse but is good for future mods
