Default Installing Nitrous in my Firebird, have a few questions??

This winter, I'm planning on installing a HSW speedworks Wet Kit on my 98 Formula. I'm already running a H/C/I setup making 410rwhp through a 4000 stall single disk converter and a built 4L60E transmission. I already have the sudden impact nitrous kit(it's my brother's), with the MicroEdge Progressive controller, bottle heater, and proper safeties. For this setup, I plan on buying the 92mm plate and having it professionally tuned. Being in my planning stages, I was wondering a few things;

1.) Should I upgrade from my Ford #30 SVO injectors(#36 @ 58psi)? If so, to what size?

2.) Would I be needing to run brR7's assuming I kept it at 100-150 shot?

3.) Should I run race fuel to accommodate the extra shot?

4.) What would be an acceptable shot on a stock bottom end with the following setup?

PRC Stg 2.5 5.3L Heads w/ recessed valves (59cc chambers 11.5:1 w/ GM MLS Gasket)
EPS 226/234(.598/.601) camshaft 113+2 lsa
7.4" Comp Cams pushrods
GM LS7 lifters
GM Head Bolts
Katech rod bolts
Fast 92/92 (unported)
Ford #30 Injectors (#36 @ 58psi)
Racetronix fuel pump and hotwire kit
Stock 1998 Fuel rail
Pacesetter 1 3/4" LT's and ORY (99% sure I'm upgrading to 1 7/8" LT's)
Magnaflow Cat-Back w/ Cutout
Built 4L60E w/ 4000 stall converter w/B&M trans cooler
3.23 stock 10 bolt
275/50/15 MT ET Streets

Thanks for any assistance, advice, etc. I've read some stickies and posts, and want to learn some more before I blow myself up! Jk, my brother has experience with this kit(went high 10's low 11's on a stock engine and 150 shot with minimal tuning). I'm 100% having this professionally tuned. I'd like to keep at 93 octane but I understand I will probably have to use some better gas. Oh well, thanks for looking!

You want br7ef plugs, spray 150 shot start by pulling 6-8 degrees of timing, 93 octane should be fine. Wet shot doesnt need injector upgrade.

Just as I thought about the plugs and injectors. Just didn't know what the rest of the nitrous world thought. This should be fun!

ya you will be fine with what you got with the br7s a 150 and 93 octane. ive sprayed up to 200 on a stock bottom on 93 pulling from the rail. make sure to run a fuel pressure safety switch though incase the pump fails or dont keep up.
