Default Water/Methanol Injection nozzle placement distance from IATS

I thought this may stir up a good conversation. I am sure I will get a wide variety of opinions. But how close is too close for placement of your water/meth injection nozzle(s) and your IATS? Or is there such a thing as "too close" in your opinion? I see people spraying their water/meth directly onto the IATS and also spraying anywhere from 2"-12"+ pre-IATS. This is assuming that the car either is SD or MAFS with separate IATS to allow water/meth injection post MAFS; and that you are tuning for your meth injection in the IAT spark tables for safety. Your thoughts?

My dual nozzles are about 10"'s away from the IAT sensor.

Atomized meth will not mess with the sensor, even if it did its alot better than your computer reading an IAT with a 20-40 degree variance. Tuning must be a nightmare.
