Can I apply to Eb5 visa with a tourist visa?

I read that I can apply from the embassy in my country, but that this process is slow. Is it better if I travel to the US on a tourist visa and start the process there, and then return to my country to wait for the answer?

If you enter the US on a visitor’s visa with intent to apply for a green card you can be refused entry. The law says that if you change your mind and only decide to apply for a green card more than 90 days after entry, you may be eligible to apply from within the U.S.
