Was your car tuned with those injectors? How was the A/F? What RWHP are you looking for? This will decide what size injectors you need.

i know quite a bit about motors and such but i dont know much about the A/F ratios so i had it tuned and that was with those injectors and it put out 485RWHP and 495TQ, can i get more power just by getting bigger injectors? i would like to end up with 550-600 RWHP in the end.

If you change injectors, you will have to re-tune.

Unless you were out of injector before, simply changing to a larger injector will gain you no addition power. But, with larger injectors you can up to boost for additional power.
