Default Will atomisation occur?

Hi,

I have a WI kit that utiilises a pressurised tank system and basic nozzles with straight through 0.4mm nozzles. When I activate the system with the car stationary all I get is a jet of water from the nozzle, not unlike a water pistol. Obviously under boost there will be an extra bar of pressure exerted on the water. I am concerned that the water will not atomise properly even though the system works great with regards to reducing knock etc. I have been told that the speed/heat of the air will atomoise it as soon as it leaves the nozzle but it has always been a doubt of mine and I have been considering getting a misting nozzle to be on the safe side but wondered if this would work with, what I assume, is quite a low pressure pump.

Thankss

John
