Gotta pay to play... I missed the street tires... Street tires will never hold a shot out of the hole. Get a real tire under it or don't spray. I wouldn't spray half way down the track, kinda pointless at that stage IMO.

or spray and deal with the spin with the rear suspension upgrade it has no wheel hop and holds straight unlike most street cars

Most likely wouldnt hook up till around 50mph.... And if your worried about breaking it, don't race it

50-75 hp setting on a WOT switch.
Probably the safest you can do all things considered.

How about a progressive unit? You could simply ramp up a 100-125 shot. It would be easy on the tires and give you a killer mph in the top end.

I been looking into those right now I'm just using a throttle switch and arming it right after I get traction

They make a really affordable mini controller. Just an option to get you going safely.

I'm gonna eventually get one but my car is really just to say I can cruise but still put good numbers up cause it never fails while I'm sitting in the parking lot enjoying a beer someone calls me out I'm not big in racing just like to prove a point

OK. From the beginning...
Tell me you are not still on stock plugs?
Did your tune add timing to what it came with stock?
You DON"T have a window switch. So if you spin badly enough on juice, you could hit the rev limiter, which could be a real bummer. In addition to wheel spin, breaking a u-joint
or the 10 bolt rear would also result in pegging the rev limiter. Again, a real bummer.
For now, like was suggested above, jet down to maybe a 50 shot.
It is still quite a bit of improvement and a lot less risky.
Also, and I am just guessing, looking at your tq, I am thinking you are running pretty rich.

plugs have been changed along with timing also a colder thermostat and larger fuel pump to accommodate the Nitrous

Dumb.
I sprayed a 200 shot through a stock engine with a window switch, timing twister, & NGK TR6 plugs. Keep the juice low like they said unless you change your timing for a bigger shot. Don't spray into the rev limiter. I sprayed between 3000 & 6600 rpm with a 6800 rev limiter. It was also on a wot switch.

Drinking and cars. Never, those don't go together.
Drinking.
Cars.
Go perfectly together.
