The injectors do fire in time with the engine position. All 4 injectors fire once every hall pulse which happens every 180 degrees of crankshaft rotation, so twice for every engine revolution. The ignition spark is by definition according to engine position and the fuel injectors fire based on the same triggering event that the ignition uses. Of course the ECU adjusts the ignition point to optimize it. The ECU also cuts off the injection pulses when conditions dictate, such as going down hill with your foot off the gas, assuming your throttle position switch is working.
