To bad we don't have the option of having the Ford GT 5.4L intake; it has 16 injectors, you would run small injectors for normal driving and have the second set kick in when you need them. The best of both worlds. Of course you would need a PCM to handle such a task, but they are out there. I've always wondered if I could modify my intake to do something like that.
