I'm in the market to purchase a new turbo. After research I've decided to go with an evo 3 16g turbo. I was reading on supporting mods and I'm just not sure which fuel pump and injector size to go with. I've read that a 190lph is a good pump and its quiet. I also found out that 550cc injectors should be good for the 16g turbo. Now what if I get those and then down the line I want to install some cam's for a little more power? Would I need 650cc injectors and a 255lph fuel pump? I wanted to stay away from the 255lph because I've read that it makes a loud whine or whistle noise. So what size injectors and fuel pump should I go for with a evo 3 16g turbo? I have an SAFC for tuning.

550cc injectors with a Walbro 190 is the perfect setup for a 16G. It'll be enough fuel to support whatever you do with that turbo. I ran a rewired 190 with my 20G and it was fine.
Might as well get some 650 injectors, unless you find a smokin' deal on some 550's. I would look at IC piping and BOV very soon too.

IC piping (preferably a whole FMIC setup) would be good. If you have a 2G definitely upgrade the BOV, but if you have a 1G just "crush" it in a vice. Hopefully you also have turbo-back exhaust and a new o2 housing would also be a great idea (ported EVOIII to match that turbo would be good).
Give us a complete list of your mods so we know what you're working with here.

Yes I guess I should have given a list of my mods. The car is currently in storage for the winter with the following parts installed: dejon tool intake, greddy S bov, SAFC, manual boost controller, boost gauge, egt guage. I have the following parts at home, not installed: evo 3 o2 manifold ported, RRE downpipe, high flow cat, magnaflow 3" cat back, FMIC (no piping yet) and a 1g throttle body. So as you can tell from my list I am missing an upgradded turbo, injectors and fuel pump. I was wondering too, if I get 550cc or 650cc injectors with a 190 fuel pump will I need a FPR? Hopefully my list of mods helped, thanks for the input guys.

I have been liking my EVO injectors. They are a little bigger than the 550's.
You shouldn't need a FPR for a 190lph.

Evo 8 or Evo 9 injectors? I was reading that you could also use a evo 8/9 fuel pump? Do you need to modify anything to make it fit? So a decent setup could be evo injectors and evo fuel pump with a rewire for my evo3 16g? Is it also sufficient fuel upgrades if I were to put in HKS 264 cams down the road?

You will not need a FPR with the Walbro 190. The 550/190 combo will supply plenty of fuel if you install cams.
I dont think the Walbro 190 is any quieter than the 255.

Walbro 190's are barely louder than stock; even rewired I couldn't hear mine.
