dude you have a clean car for sure, but here is what i would do if you really want this!

1. find a great looking natural setting as a backdrop
2. find someone you know with a badass camera so the pictures are more clear
3. take the shots at the cars best angles

nope you don't need injectors for this setup. i'm using the stock belt still and it hasn't slipped a bit. if i went to the next step smaller pulley i'd need injectors, a tune, and a smaller belt.

yes but since it's from the dealer they include a tune and injectors to keep it within "safe" parameters. the general consensus is that the engine can handle being leaned out a bit by using only a 3" pulley and colder plugs alone. there are a good amount of people running this setup for some cheap and easy gains.

yes because there's no tune involved, the ECU management stays the same and adapts as much as it can within it's own ability for timing and whatever fuel delivery changes it can make.
