Tell us more about your build.
What cam, how much compression, exhaust, intake, current HP/TQ?
What year?

You likely would not notice anything but a harder to tune low end.

If you have a strong build with ported heads n stuff and much over 100 HP, you may benefit using 5.3 injectors.
But a 58mm TB on a 107 is too big in my book.

I can tell you it was highly recommended for my build. Of course I have ported heads (Dewey Heads), 10.5:1 compression, and a 55mm TB. You should talk to a performance shop also.

have to agree 58 is way to big for a 107 - at times bigger does not = more power -- also with motor builds you get to the point of deminishing returns

You would gain more on the bottom end with a smaller TB. You prolly need the larger injectors too. Dont know about your tuner but you need to tell it when you install injectors. Did you put this combo togather?

In general, larger throttle body, more HP. Either go with an Autotuner or find another human tuner, your numbers are low for your build. Larger injectors are not going to solve your issue with low numbers.
