unproven? maybe. everyone is too scared to try.
no they cannot make a spacer that incorporates injectors that fits with the oem plastic manifolds. THAT option is reserved for the meth guys + SRM plates

well, that's not how it works - if somebody is asking money for their product, most people would expect that they would show that it does what it advertised. not just fork out some money and then the product ultimately might not do much. Yes, port injection would be nice because it would allow to run full e85 and not mess with mixing, but there's a sneaky suspicion PI kits (and blowers) didn't pick up any steam due to some ecu limitation(s). Particularly, as I was told and understood, ECU's reference map (ip_tqi_ref) it uses to go back and forth between the load and torque, has a torque limit very close to an e40 dual pulley setup. Or we should say, e40 DP setup is on the limits of this reference map. here's this map from some b8.5 rom (columns are load in mg per stroke and rows are engine speed in rpm, values are torque in Nm):

and it's all downhill from here, these are some reference values in some ideal conditions, and this all gets mostly adjusted down. If PI kits could make a lot of a difference power wise (not just be convenient for e85), I'm sure some major vendors on this platform would have released these already. By the same token, this might explain why APR didn't get much power from their supercharger compared to a DP setup. Of course, I might be wrong about this, this is what I have been told. It does seem more plausible to me than all the hopium-filled stuff about the new PI and blower setups, I've been hearing that this platform is about to have a breakthrough for almost all the years I had this effing car.
