chip question

Hey I'm in the process of looking for a chip for my car that I modded, its a 88 pontiac gta trans am with the 5.7L engine. I put heads, cammed it, and put an intake manifold on it, plus a few more bolt ons and took emissions components off. I have the stock injectors on the car right now. My question is that if I order a chip do I need bigger injectors on the car or will the chip take care of the fuel delivery wit the stock ones? and also i kno i dont have all the power i should from the setup thats y im assuming the chip should bring out the performance from the new setup right?
thanx any info would really help.

Re: chip question

see DIY Prom boards or if you want to order one take a look at tpichips.com.

In both cases you need to datalog engine to see state of tune before or after changes in bin. consider making or purchasing a ALDL cable for laptop.

Re: chip question

With bigger cc heads and cam, I would go with 26-30lb injectors...
