Meth install: Equal length tubing from tee??

Meth install: Equal length tubing from tee??
Just got to running my meth lines. I didn't have equal length from the "T". So it might start spraying the one jet before the other by a slight bit.
I attached a pic. Do I have anything to worry about?

IMHO They should have been closer to the Turbos, but that is my opinion. I really do not think it will make a difference as they all meet in the middle anyway. I have done a few of these and tutored others, I will PM you a Link.

We measured ours to be equal left and right, 28" from the Plenum to be precise. Why, we figured that we want the liquid to be completely vaporized before entering the engine. Drops of was do not do much good. The extra distance gave us peace of mind and when we measured at the plenum we were proved correct.
In reality, assuming the pressure is up and the jets are not too large it will be fine. We installed ours for in cylinder cooling as opposed to an octane booster, H20 has the best coefficient of heat out there so it did the job well. We add about 20% - 30% meth for good measure.
If you take the car out and at WOT it coughs, dial back the controller till it stops or reduce the jet size. DO NOT DO THIS FOR LONG IF IT COUGHS, get that right foot off fast and adjust things.
OK that was my 2c.

My lines were not equal, although, a little closer than the OP. If you are using a 160psi pump (give or take) that line will fill up way faster than you can move your foot. Not sure I would worry. If you are tuned that close that this would be a problem, I would worry about that more...
