Upgrading the injectors isn't a bad idea.

I have a 89' vert running on the stock turbo with a FMIC and 3" TB exhaust system.

I installed mustang 5.0 fuel injectors and after warm-up, the car runs wonderfully. Running 12lbs of boost on the stock turbo, I've never had any problem with boost creep or overboosting.

Max boost your looking at on the stock turbo is about 12-15lbs. Anymore than that and its more than likely that your going to break something....
