There seems to be a discussion on injectors here:

https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/show...ighlight=310HP


You will be alright with just stage 2 and 42's. You can use NGK Spark Plugs (BKR7e). It's recommended to use 1 step colder but not necessary. CA has them. Those LFP look ok to use. If you are going to spend on 42's, I suggest you spend a little bit more to get some 60's. Just my thought.

I went with stage 2 42's. To use any injectors made for the ss/sc you need the injector harness from an 03-05 cavi or sunfire.

for plugs: i haven't got the s/c in yet, but i have a set of NGK copper plugs meant for the turbo 2.4 solstice guys. I'll get you a part number when I get put them in tomorrow.

Shouldn't need 42's or 34's for that matter if you aren't boosting. A tune would help though.
