Default meth nozzle recommendations?

Looking for some input and/or advice on which meth nozzle size others are running and what I should run on my setup which is a TC78 at about 15psi.

I've currently got an M10 nozzle on the car and it has worked well for me but have seen and heard of others running even larger like m12 or even m14's.

I am not using meth so much for the power but more for the cooling benefits. I run about a 60/40 meth to water mixture.

What are you guys running and what would you recommend?

Wow those are some huge nozzles, much larger than what I was really planning for. I am spraying post turbo and FMIC.

Well sounds like I need to upsize my nozzle a bit then

What pump were you running in your setup? I'm just running a single 250psi pump, is that enough to supply 2 large nozzles?

AIS KIT.
I turned up the pressure a 1/4 turn from factory, with all three nozzles my afr would move about .6-.8, my car was running 11.2-11.4 with the meth on and would go 12.0-12.2 if turned off, unfortunately that engine did get hurt last year.

new build is a stock 5.3 e-85 with 2 14gph one pre inter cooler and one post, the post is about 20-22inchs from TB afr move about .1-.2

From my findings you want your AFR to drop about a half point when the meth is activated. I plan on running a 11.8 AFR without meth then have it drop down to 11.3-11.4 with meth. I also have an AIS rear mount meth system and will be starting out with two #7's and work my way up or down from there.

I'll be running dual 20 gph nozzles on my non i/c set-up. One pre compressor and one post compressor with the nozzle in the acutal compressor housing outlet. My charge piping is around a foot long, maybe slightly longer.

Nice Martin, I am also contemplating running a staright pipe from my S475 turbo to the throttle body and using 2-3 nozzles to keep the air cool and detonation away. Do you think it would be possible to run 12-14psi on 93 pump gas with meth on a setup like you mentioned?

I most certainly do. I would run at least dual 15's if going non i/c and possibly even dual 15's and a single 10. If you have an A2A you could get away with dual 10's and pump 93 with 12-14psi and 14-18* timing.
