With stock motor no need for them. If you do go boosted then you will need to replace the pump regardless.

I'm pretty sure brown top injectors are 36# injectors not 19#. What did they come off of?

OK yes the old pre 96 19# ones are brown and not orange. When they started making 36# ones they changed the color to orange.

The tune has to change so the car knows what injectors are in it or it will not run right. Also those I believe are low impedance injectors and your car uses high impedance injectors so I don't even think they will work for you in this application. I would have to check a few things but I'm pretty sure I'm right.

You can up your injectors only when you need it. Changing them out will not give you more horsepower. So until you have a stout n/a motor or some kind of forced induction don't worry about it
