Default 100 shot of nitrous

Would a 100 shot be to much for a 5th gen lude with head work but stock bottom end? I'm running a 75 shot now but thinking of bumping it up. I really don't use the nitrous all the time, I don't need it for most of the cars I race on the street, but a full bottle will usually last me a month, month 1/2. What do you guys think?

Yea, I don't think it will hurt anything the 75 shot won't. But I don't want to burn my rings up either. Anyone with personnel experience running a 100 shot?

I know someone who used a 50 shot on a 2000 BMW 330i and lost compression in one of his cylinders in one week. Nitrous is as big of a gamble as the lottery, slots, or russian roulette. With any car. No matter who makes it, how old it is, or how "built up" you have the engine.

Is this a wet shot or a dry shot? you will need a fuel pump if its a dry shot. (anything over 75 shot) I'm friends with a girl that has a 92 prelude (nonvtec for you noobs), 85 shot, I/H/E and fuel pump (and suspension) running consistant 14.2's. 14.0 best time. be careful and make sure you know everything you will need before you add 25.
