I would say nothing over 75.
W/ a 75 shot, you're increasing your engine output by way over 50%.
I'm not saying that it'll blow w/ a 75 shot, but just keep that in mind.

with the NX kit it says in the directions what jets to use and the celica is on there for a 35-50-75 shot some brands of cars are on there for just a 35-50 shot . so i figure is they give you the jet settings in the directions then it is safe to use.

i woudlnt go over 50 on a GTS.. i know you can do more.. but its really not necesary as with a 50 shot your already gonna be fighting for traction

if i had a 6-speed, i'd say spray 50, and then an additional 25 (for 75 total) as soon as you shift into 3rd...

and LSD+drag radials.

thanks guys, the afc is working great and the car pulls hard up to redline now. we are just going to install a 50 shot and keep on eye on everything to make sure it doesnt go lean. we might bump it up to 70 shot later and put it on the dyno to see if it is running lean or whatever. thanks for your input.

Larry, besides the 50 shot kit what else should I get? you seem to know more about this than I do so I appreciate your input.

I have a GT and don't want to jet anything higher than 50. what else should I get? I'm not going cheap on this so let me know. thanks a lot.

i got a dumb question here:

whats the difference between 50/75/100 shot of nitrous?

Does the number 50/75/100 indicate how much nitrous is injected into the cylinder at once?

Is it the amount of shots that can be injected into the cylinder per bottle?

or if i am totally off, can you please tell me... Thank You very much

xkrnplayboyx.. 50-75-100 is the hp gained from the shot.. the actual amount of nitrous and fuel are derived from the pills that you use like I believe its 37nitrous and 22fuel for a 50 shot...

celica2000TRD.. you should really read the post before asking another question thats already been answered..

Well I am running 100 shot and according to my fuel pressure gauge I am only losing 2 PSI of pressure. Which 47 PSI under the juice is plenty of fuel
