Where to place AIT relative to WI?
As I reinstall the motor, I am moving the location of my water injection and adding an AIT sensor for the MS-II. My thought is to put both of them in the outlet tube of the intercooler. My question is which comes first, the chicken or the egg?
I am pretty sure I want the AIT at "C" in the attached picture.
If the WI should be before it, do you think A or B?
IF WI goes after should I still put AIT at C and water at D? Or would AIT at B and water at C or D be better?
Any thoughts?

It's on a supercharged car, so the intake flow is
Throttle body
Supercharger
intercooler
intake manifold
I thought I read somewhere that they didn't recommend putting the sensor directly in the manifold, so, the charge pipes are an option, but due to the layout maintenance/replacement would be much more difficult.

I would probably put them as far apart as possible. That way the water would have time to evaporate before hitting the AIT sensor. So, WI at A and AIT at D. However, that is just one small part of the equation.
