1. You will be fine w/ stock injectors for now.
2. I would up it to a 52mm TB
3. Every car is different. Depends on your supporting mods.
4. 1.6 rockers will work with stock valve covers.

If your going to make in the upper 300's to lower 400's its not going to hurt to go to #30's for the injector, the car needs to be tuned anyway so why not spend the extra couple of bucks.

52 or 58mm doesnt matter they preform about the same, the diff is you need to open up the intake manifold
