Well as has been mentioned it is doubtful the injectors are the problem. I'm not sure what injectors you put in exactly but I will assume you have the blue Ford 0280155715's? While they do put out more fuel than stock injectors you are only talking 10% more and combined with your bored throttle body and CAI they should be a perfect fit. Even with stock air flow the extra 10% @ wide open throttle might make you run a bit rich but wouldn't being to multiply your rpms many fold. I ran the #24 and even #27 injectors in my '94 XJ just to see what would happen and had no real operational problems
#27
ive seen this happen before on a TJ, You've got a leak somewhere in a vacuum line, or the throttle body gasket, etc. air is getting into the intake somewhere other than just through the throttle body.
