^^^until it blows!!!........wet kit will allow you to run the most ..I've seen 200 shots run on stock set ups....but I'd start at 100 and maybe go up to 150.....but above there you really have to watch timing and start changing to a colder plug...cause detonation will kill the motor if your not careful

most will tell you to go at least 100 or dont bother. i personally dont have any experience with it though. but as long as your motor is in good mechanical working condition, you will be perfectly fine as long as you set it up correctly

I typically see 175 wet max, and 150 dry max (with upgraded fuel pump minimum). I agree with Bighungrymatt too. Nitrous = Heroin....once you take that shot you want more!!

Nitrous is a drug chosen by most. It should only be used with respect and never to be abused. A 75 shot would be more than fine. i've seen stock 302's w/ over 150,000 miles handle a 150 wet shot and FI with no problems. Make sure you have supporting fuel modifications and adjust timing as needed.
