Default Where is the optimal place on the intake pipe to drill the Nitrous tap?

I have a Zex Nitrous kit. What's the optimal distance from the throttle body where I should drill to install the nitrous nozzle. Thanks in advance!

I've heard that the furthest you can safely get the tap from the throttle body the better. If its further it allows the nitrous to cool down the intake charge longer. But thats what i've heard, I dont use nitrous nor am i a nitrous expert.

12-18" away from TB plate.

Gives NOS more time to evenly disperse (sp?)
