A safe rule to always fallow on nitrous for a new nitrous user is take your stock horsepower and divide it by 2 and thats the biggest shot you will want to run tell you upgrade more parts and learn more about your car.

Actually, that's the maximum shot you can possibly run.. at that point you're running pretty much on all nitrous. Nitrous is a bit denser then the air we breathe, but when it comes down to it, nitrous is 33% oxygen instead of 21% oxygen. This is an increase of about 33% over stock. Because nitrous oxide is denser, it can pack more air into the area, but you will most likely not be able to fit more then a "100" shot of nitrous into a 150hp engine.
Divide by 3.

Nitrous is far more dense than air (even when expanded into gas) and it cools the charge air significantly also. Figuring that nitrous is only good for 33% more air than without nitrous is an incorrect although logical conclusion to come to. The nitrous oxide molecules are denser than 2 nitrogen atoms and an oxygen atom if they all went in separately. Once heated and compressed the molecules break apart and you then have significantly more oxygen than you would have been able to get into the combustion chamber running in an atmosphere with a 2:1 ratio of nitrogen and oxygen.

I'm just telling you from experience. a 50 shot flows into my 140hp beta. a 75 shot wets my MAF sensor.
My logical conclusion is somewhere between 1/3 and 1/2 of my engine's rated horsepower is where the nitrous and fuel mixture out-flows the engine's capabilities.
