2 simultaneous would fire all injectors, twice per engine cycle - that is, once per crank revolution. 6 alternating would fire half the injectors six times per cycle - that is, once each time the ignition event. My advice is to try both and see which runs better.
and what need in cranking PW%
Tnx lot for help,
The cranking pulse width also needs to be determined by trial and error. The tuning manual covers how to set this.

It may be too lean, or it may have the timing way too retarded. This problem can be several things.

Could be the fuel or spark map is not correctly tuned for 0.8 bar of boost, or maybe you've reached the limits of your ignition system.
