I bought a set of bosch 315cc injectors. They are a Ford Motorsport application. When I look at the end, they have a single pintle design which looks like it will spray a nice even cone. Other injectors I have seen or used have, rather than a visible pintle, a little plate in the end with two or four pinholes. What is the advantage of each? I am running a 4 cylinder 16v VW motor. The individual intake ports split into two channels, one for each intake valve, and have a dividing wall between the two. From what I've read, an injector with two pinholes pointed at each of these channels is ideal. Is there a problem with running a single cone?
Thanks.
Which injector is better: single or multiple pinholes?

OK, so the ones I purchased, without a plate with multiple pinholes, more than likely atomize less fuel.
Is it THAT big of a difference that I should start shopping around for a nicer set? What will be the drawbacks; less torque, worse idle and worse emissions?
I found these two pics of spray pattern, and can now see the superiority of the disc style. First picture is pintle style, like I bought, second is disc style, like I want
