Absolutely.

Do some research using your power goals as to what size you will need. There is more than enough info on this site through searching that you will find what you need.

I couldn't agree more..this isn't really something we can answer for you. You need to research and figure out your build, power goals, etc...and then go from there.

The general rule of thumb is that you need approximately 6cc of injector per whp. Using that guideline, your stock injectors will only allow you to make 160-180whp. If you plan to make more than that, you'll have to go bigger...
