Fueling questions for 320-360 hp.
I'm shooting for 320-360hp for my FD that I will be tracking. Im using stock non-seq. twins. Should I just replace the fpd, eliminate it, or upgrade the rail and fpd to a CJM(or other kit). Also, what injectors should I use?

I would go ahead and upgrade to FFE step up kit which upgrades the secondaries. I got mine from IR performance and really happy with the kit. i got the Bosch 2000s with the kit.

I dont think that in this power range you need biger injectors.
i am at 370-380 hp with non sequencial and i just installed an after market fuel pressure regulator. with this i uped the fuel pressure from 3bar to 3.6 and i have all the juice i need. also if you install a biger gas pump you will get evn more fuel.
i lately installed a bosch fuel pump and i had to lower my fuel maps by 20-30%

Stock injectors and pump are fine for this level. Just hotwire the pump so that you can ensure it has 13-14V at WOT compared to 10-12V on a stock setup (dependent on your wiring's condition). That should provide enough fuel. As said above, you may have to increase the fuel pressure a touch but probably not much or at all.

EV14 style injectors have been out long enough that you can get good quality injectors using the new technology at a reasonable price. I would *not* suggest using old-style injectors at all tbh..
The OP could probably get away with a minor pump upgrade, rewired (always good) of course, and 550/1600 injectors.

Bumping up the base fuel pressure to mimic larger injectors is a bandaid solution in my opinion. If you want to run 850cc injectors at 52psi base fuel (up from 43psi) so that they'll act like 1000cc injectors why not just spend the little bit extra to get 1000cc injectors an do it right from the start?
I recall being told back in the UK that bumping up the base pressure yielded a better spray pattern, but honestly if you're using quality components from the start then you don't need to worry about that. Oh, and your fuel economy will thank you.

Upgrade all injectors to EV14 style, run a 550cc and 2000cc set up.
this will have plenty of fuel even if you want to run more power and use the latest technology for best idle quality and smoothest fuel delivery.
