Default How Much NOS is to much????

I'm having a Vigilante 3200 RPM torque converter and 3.73 gears installed, Would it be to much to add a 150 shot of NOS with a full throttle switch for a daily driver???
THANKS ALREADY

i saw an article in a few years back where they took a stock block and put as much nitrous on as the block would take before ka-boom it took somthing like 350 or so.

holy ****!!!! a 32,000 rpm stall? my god the car is going to rip in half!!!
from what ive read 150 shot before you have to really start messing with the fuel system. just do a 100 or 125 shot. you can do that all day long on a stock system. just dont spray in to low of an rpm or through your shift and it should hold up nicely.

You shouldn't have any problem with that setup. It all depends on how strong the bottom end is. With a factory lower rotating end, it just depends on how well it was built, but alot of people have real good luck. Your mileage is going to suck major ***, though, with that stall and low rear.
