Default Will a 255 be enough for me

I have a 98 SS with a ms3 cam, 42 lbs injectors, ls6 intake manifold, lt, and a nitrous outlet wet plate kit. I was wondering if a ractronix 255 with a hotwire kit will be enough for a 100 shot? 150? Car made 389 rwhp NA. Eventually I plan on putting some heads on it too.

That combo will handle the 150hp jets just fine.

Not crazy if it is done the RIGHT way think camscam is doing the same. Both running 9's with just a cam and bolt ons plus the drivetrain to match.

383 na and 509 on spray. nothing to call home about but my pressure gauge broke on the way to the dyno, so I think it was at 900psi. and I spay at 1050. and it runs great on the street which all that matters to me.
