Cool, I am willing to try anything. NEEEED MOOOORRRREE POOOWWWEEER 
I guess I should be around 170 or to HP stock, maybe more with my K&N Air Filter. So I have only 35 HP till I reach my goal!!! If I could gain 50 HP that would be even better, but for now I will try to reach 205 to 210 HP

Don't touch injectors unless you can customize your PCM. For now worry about allowing the engine to breath easier (intake/exhaust), then work on valvetrain or more serious internal mods.

Allmachtige
I see you have a chip installed in your bonny from your sig, what does that do for you? How much do chips help the performance?

I'll field that one....Mach is still asleep, I bet.
Allmachtige is running the Superchip, I'm running the Jet Stage 2. Both chips are very similar. They firm up the shift points, and raise them slightly, also raising the redline. My chip (not sure about his) also removes the top speed limiter. Skip shifting is also an option for some chips......and more:
Basic requirements before chipping are usually the 180° thermostat, intake, and exhaust. My personal suggestion is to also add a tranny cooler. Most chips will also require you to run higher octane fuel, as well.

The ECM in the vehicle looks at various sensors such as manifold vacuum, coolant temperature, throttle position and RPM, it then processes this information and adjusts spark timing, air/fuel ratio and other parameter according to the tables stored in the JET Performance chip/module memory. By recalibrating these tables we are able to tune the engine for the maximum horsepower and torque under various driving conditions.
By installing the JET chip or module these extra increases in performance enhance drivability, towing capabilities, reduce ¼ miles times and provide improved overall efficiency.
