Your always going to wish you went bigger. you can change the shot size in 20 seconds. its just a jet thats in the line. a 75 is keeping it safe and personally I wouldnt get anything more than a 75.

Others will say a 100 will also be safe but the less there is the safer it is which will put less wear and tear on your engine.

well the nitrous will be good for all those mods except for the supercharger. With the supercharger your not going to need the nitrous. You will be making to much horsepower with the supercharger and any more HP with the nitrous is just asking for trouble. You will have to build your internals if you want to add some spray along with a supercharger.
If you dont have money right now just get the nitrous untill you can get the supercharger. Its a good way to have fun in the meantime.

The average size for a bottle is 10 lbs. there are bigger and smaller bottles. The shot is how much nitrous is used.

the higher the shot the more nitrous is used and the bottle woulnt last as long. It costs like 35-55 to fill up.
no matter what size bottle you get the same shot of nitrous. what controls how much nitrous (the shot) is a jet that goes in the end of the tube that you connect to the bottle. It limits how much n20 is used.

depends on how long you spray at a time. I remember my friend saying his 125 shot could spray for 1.5 minutes. so that would probably be 6-7 1/4 mile runs.
so you should get some more time out of it since a 75 shot is less. around 9-10 runs.

call up some shops and see if they refill them. Just need to find a place in your area.
