you are only fitting one cam shaft just before someone talks about 'cams and ph3's'

OE injectors should be fine if you are on OE inlet.

Camshaft is singular, cams is plural, and a camshaft has many cams, so you can in fact use 'cams' for an 8v. /rant off.
You can just put them straight in if you wish, however there are a few things you can uprate if you want, like springs and spring caps, however you'd need the head off to do them I think.

should see a nice increase, if i was you, unless you know exactly what you are doing - get a pro to fit and time it all up properly

camshaft has many cam lobes, not many cams,
you can run ph3 on standard inlet etc, need and adjustable pulley, and sum1 to time it up/remap
