First off, it's spelled FUEL. Second, The stock injectors should push everything you should ever need. Unless you increase your air flow by about 20-30% over stock, you really don't need to upgrade the injectors. If anything, the Jet chip is doing that for you. The 3.7 ECU is a weird unit. It will most likely tune out any minor mods that you have done. What kind of changes did the chip do? I just want to know about power and gas mileage. Hope this helps!

I don't think you need any new fuel injectors unless you're going to do a blower like Twink or some other major work on the engine.

xanadu62 I did notice gains in the butt dyno when I put my stage 1 Jet chip in, but it had no effect on my fuel economy. I don't know how interested you are in improving your fuel economy but I got the best results from an electric fan.

thanks for the info. I've heard a long list of things about the jet chip. Most if it bad, but I'm glad to see that it works.

Yea most people bad mouth them, but it's pretty much the only chip for the v6. Since nobody is gonna buy it and do before and after dyno's for the chip you kinda just have to trust Jet and butt dyno impressions. The only other way to test if it gives performance gains would be doing runs at a track before and after. If you had a spare pcm or could be w/o your truck you could send the pcm to B&G for a tune b/c they list a tune on their site for it.
