Nothing can be easier... lets see... remove the fuel rail, remove the injectors... then swap in the new ones.. and put the fuel rail back on.

You cant just stick injectors on by the way. You need to tune them

exactly. Youcould use someone elses tune but every car is different and reacts differently. So telling you some #'s would do no good. You really need something to monitor what the car is doing. RRE has a couple setting they used with the 16g and t25 but like i said these should only be used as a base setting and then adjusted accordingly

Be careful with the o-rings. DO NOT rip it even slightly or even roll it on one side or you will leak. Put them back together like you took them apart and use new o-rings which should come with them.

BTW, just because you get injectors does not mean you can turn up the boost, you still need a pump and to finish off the equation, an AFPR.
Just because you get bigger fuel injectors does not mean that you will get more fuel. You may get a tiny bit more fuel but nothing noticable because the the deadtime and global fuel trim is still using the stock fuel map. Plus, the pump can't pump anymore than what is has been doing with the stock injectors. I'm just stating the obvious and trying to keep you from breaking something.

What are your mods?

Exhaust might be a good idea, and you are going to need a FMIC. Not to mention with that extra power your clutch is going to die
