You say injectors, are they larger than stock? Does this car have a tune or calibrated maf to match the injectors?
Have you run the engine codes?
More details on the actual mods themselves? What cam? What heads? What injectors? Is the MAF calibrated for the injectors? Is the car even mass air swapped?

After you figure out what you actually have in terms of engine and modifications, then proceed to the advice below...
You guys with idle/stall problems could save a lot of time chasing your tails if you would go through the Surging Idle Checklist. Over 50 different people contributed information to it. The first two posts have all the fixes, and steps through the how to find and fix your idle problems without spending a lot of time and money. It includes how to dump the computer codes quickly and simply as one of the first steps. I continue to update it as more people post fixes or ask questions. You can post questions to that sticky and have your name and idle problem recognized. The guys with original problems and fixes get their posts added to the main fix.
It's free, I don't get anything for the use of it except knowing I helped a fellow Mustang enthusiast with his car. At last check, it had more than 200,000 hits, which indicates it does help fix idle problems quickly and inexpensively.
