you won't get "more power" out of injectors. You need injectors when you got other parts installed that "Requires" more fuel.
Like I said, nothing you can add to the mx-3 except turbo or s/c (maybe a crazy N/A set-up that 99.9% of people here will never have) will require other injectors than stock.

Keep the stockers and play with a fuel pressure regulator instead. There is plenty of fuel needed there.

you can change the a/f ratio without changing injectors. Like I said buy a fuel pressure regulator and play with it and you'll get different a/f numbers. You won't get precise reading without a wideband 02 sensor though.
