Default Nitrous question: Which will atomize fuel better.

Which will atomize fuel better, a plate, like the one from nitrous works or a nozzle, like the shark nozzle from NX.

I have the nitrous works kit now and was going to switch to the NX nozzle if it atomized better.

Thanks
Jim

Fogger nozzles work well because the high pressure nitrous shears the fuel as it exts the nozzle. This helps fuel atomization especially at very high nitrous settings. If you are in the 100hp range it is not going to matter much.

So should I not waste time/money switching it out?
