A better example is Formula Atlantic engines of a few years ago. I was talking to a guy that used to build them, and he said that when they went from twin Webers to EFI, they went from 238hp to 242hp. That's pretty much dyno error ...
But at 6,000rpm he got 20hp more!
You don't need a million maps to make a good EFI system, all you need is the right compensation maps to adjust for temperature (which a carby can't do), elevation (which a carby can't do), water temperature (which a carby can't do), air temperature (which a carby can't do), and the engine will run just fine over a large range of conditions very well indeed.
If you want to compare a stock EFI 4AGE to a twin Weber one, make it fair and compare them the other way as well - A quad throttle body EFI one compared to one with a stock inlet manifold and something like a 2" SU hanging off the front of it. Pretty obvious which one would be better.
