Default KB 2.1 + NX 50/75 shot?

Havent been on here in a while, but to those of you that may have forgot....i'm currently running a KB 2.1 at 12psi (pretty much at the limit before it starts getting really inefficient), built 5.0 VT stroker/ported heads/blower cams and full bolt-ons. My last dyno put me at 558rwhp....In my endless search to build more power, I've come to three possible decisions.

option one, steal underpants....option three, profit!

j/p [8D]

1) sell the 2.1 and invest in a KB 2.6 - then crank the boost
2) keep the 2.1 and invest in a shot of giggle gas...
3) keep the 2.1 and invest in either a C02 spraybar or meth injection kit

i've been leaning more towards getting a NX wet kit and running between a 50-75 shot.
First concern; is it safe to run juice on a blown car?
second; not really sure what heat range spark plug and proper gapping would be needed to run two power adders
third; being a lower compression motor built for boost (8.5:1 i think), will it not respond as well to nitrous as a higher compression?

I like the idea of running a small shot of nitrous, because my car is nice and fast as is, but would be nice to have a slight kicker when needed....for the occaisonal whipple cobra or big turbo supra haha...

so thoughts? skip the NX kit? go for the bigger KB? whats my best bet?

I would personally add some spray. I've heard KB doesnt want the rotor blades gettin nitrous on them but it's just hear say idk for sure. I'd get a kit that adds the fuel and nitrous at the injectors.
