Default Any problem with installing a higher pressure pump with stock injectors?

I'm not planning on keeping the stock ones, but one of the few things I'm ~not~ comfortable with is dropping the tank - just not enough room to do it.

That being said, I'd like to have the pump installed by a competent shop (I've got a great one), but I'd like it done first so I can have it ready before I do forced induction and the new injectors - will there be any issue with a higher pressure pump (namely the Walboro in tank pump) with the stock injectors?

It is still regulated to 58psi unless a different regulator system is installed, so the actual pump pressure doesn't matter. The advantage of a better pump is more volume.
