pacesetter LT's
TSP ypipe
magnaflow exhaust
4400 stall

and maybe some nitrous in the future(not 100% sure yet on this)

what type of fuel set up am i going to need.... as of right now i have nothing stock everything

i was planning on getting some svo green top injectors(42lb), will they be sufficient or are they too big, also what fuel pump set up should i go with(racetronix, walbro, etc) or stock pump should do?

no nitrous:
36lbs injectors, stock pump should be fine. (pump not a neccesity)

Nitrous:
Racetronix, 42lbs injectors.

I have 42# green top injectors and Walbro fuel pump in my car. It's a well proven combo, I highly recommend it.

I went thru 3 walbros, then went with the racetronix hot wire kit and pump.
