TPI Wet Flow Data: Anyone have it?

I'm looking for any data that anyone might have that would highlight the wet flow performance of a TPI intake...

Whether via 9th injector or throttle body or CAI meth injection.

Really curious just how bad it is as the potential benefits of early meth injection for cooling the air charge are likely larger with a TPI engine pushing the DCR limits than most engines...

I forget the source where I read/heard it from, might have been Richard Holdener when he put a carb on top of the TPI intake, but it's not a stellar wet intake in terms of even distribution. Something to the effect that the 150 shot plate sold by NOS is pretty much the max you can go before you risk distribution issues.
