Default Nitrous - would it be safe to run a 75 or 100 shot?

I have a 96' Z28 with 100,000 miles on it, full bolt-ons. I plan on setting it up for road racing, to break off some imports at there own game. My question is would it be safe to run a 75 or 100 shot on it. Keep in mind this is a daily driver. I love to drag but being pull 1g is pretty intense. Drag is what I want the Juice for. Also should I go with a wet or dry shot.

If you do a dry shot you will need to upgrade injectors to 28 or 30 lbers at the least...I like wet kits personally

Thanks I just ordered my system, I am going to run a wet kit. I will probably run a 75 shot for street and move to a 100-125 for the strip.
