Do i need any fuel system mods on my 96GT to support 320hp with forced induction, or can the stock injectors, MAF sensor and ECU handle it?

Forced induction generally comes in "kit form": you might get a package that includes the head unit, injectors and a tune. For a 96 with its return-system, I'd consider an in-tank pump upgrade to a 255lph unit to replace the thirteen year old OE unit there now. It's probably overkill for that power level but it's headroom and peace of mind.

I wouldn't attempt to run a forced-induction motor to 320rwHP with the stock 19# injectors. For that sort of power and, again, for a safety margin, I'd look at 24# minimum or 30# units. The MAF should be fine. You'll definitely need to get a tune for the PCM to tie it all together.

A set of plugs one range cooler would also be beneficial.
