Yes, get injectors. You are already past due with the mods in your sig. I would go with nothing smaller than 37lbs. I run 42lbs with the mods I have in my sig and they work great.

Yeah,
I'd upgrade injectors, it's a little money to be safe. With a F13 and 205s you're
capable of moving some air and FUEL. So injector duty is questionable.

It doesn't matter. Bosch or Delphi. I have had both, and liked both. I have the Boschs now.

If your injectors are not maxed out then no. Check the duty cycle of your injectors first.
