I have contacted injection weber setup and asked them to compare the weber carb to the injection version and point blank the individual stated the carbs were just as good as the injection. I would not see a difference in power as long as the webers are properly tuned.
Personally I would run the Webers because they look cool. Will you 'see a difference'? Or a better question would be, will you 'feel a difference'? Most likely you won't see or feel it without a timing tree or exacting lap times carefully measured. So, in that respect the quote is accurate at the same time it may be misleading.

My rebuilt motor gave up about 150 horse power from what I had before. I can BARELY 'feel' the difference, and 150 h.p. is a LOT! But it shows up at the drag strip where the electronic timers don't lie! In the real world? Well all I know is the engine sure is nicer to drive on the STREET, more smiles per miles than I was getting before.
