The Q=k*sqrt(p) math says that it should be equal flow with equal pressure. I guess you would have slightly less pressure with the 11.2 since there is more flow(friction).
I just had an issue yesterday trying to get a flow valve to trip with a remote test (one head) and thought the same thing (to look at using two heads).
