You dont need to upgrade injectors with the little amount of engine mods you have.. I would suggest more suspention work like sway bars, tie bars..

What about if I stepped it up to a 75 shot, then I should definitely do the injectors?

I have Hayames and a rear chamber kit already. I am not very happy with the suspension and still playing around with the Hayames. So I do not want to do any more suspension mods until I figure out if I am going to keep them or swap them out.
Just looking for something to make it faster as is or safer if I step up to a 75 shot.

That is probably one of the last things you would want. They barely do anything.

Half that schitt they don't even make for our car or I already have.

I know the list but I am asking from everyone's experience what would be the next best step to take for the current mods I have.

I could slap on a cam gear but maybe with Nitrous my heads are starving for air and I should get a PNP, that is the stuff I do not know. What will be effective,

How about Clutch for the extra power and a flywheel to reduce rotational mass. That will make a big differnce.
