The reason for Port injection over direct injection isn't because the direct injectors are not able to inject enough gasoline. The reason for the port injection is to achieve a stratified mixture of gasoline/air in the combustion chamber. It is difficult to achieve a good mix of gasoline and air with direct injection. By injecting gasoline in the intake port the gasoline has much more time to mix with the air and the air movement itself helps with the mixing.
