What little I know about injectors (about > . < ) is that 4 pintles will give better atomisation than one or two so you should get a better burn.

430cc - about 400bhp potential? Only problem is they might not be compatible with the standard end-fed fuel rails...

Imvho you would be better running side-fed injectors as you can use the standard Zetec fuel rail (which are common as muck). Side feds aren't as common as end-feds though, so some hunting might be needed (iirc there's a couple of performance Jap cars that use suitable ones).
