Default best location for meth nozzle and IAT sensor?

I have an LT1, D1-SC with twin intercooloers piping runs up driver side radiator into a y-connector = 4". I will have my MAF there and a 4" 90 degree bend 5 ply silicone elbow into my throttle body.
I have a progressive meth kit and Lingenfelter MAF.
I can adapt my factory IAT anywhere in there, and same with the meth nozzle.

Should I spray before the MAF and let it's IAT sensor feed my reading?

Should I spray after the MAF and put the IAT closer to the throttle body, say, in the intake elbow?
What say ye that run meth and watch your intake air temps?

Meth into the MAF sensor is bad, have the IAT downstream so the meth can be after the sensor and before the IAT sensor so it can pick up a temp change when spraying.

i have heard and read its the best to have the meth before the iat , then its a safeguard in-case the meth fails the iats will be high and timing will be pulled .
