most people stop at a 50 shot, i see no problem having a 75 shot.
its like how most people are paranoid about running above 8psi on turbo but plenty have daily driven with 12psi.

a lot of people have had problems with their trannys on their bone stock cars. So if your tranny is going to fail, its gonna fail regardless.

Run whatever you want. and if it breaks, fix it and go do it again.

if your going to do it on a auto tranny change your fluid to redline and get a tranny cooler atleast.. if not upgrade like I did because I was running 16 psi of boost with no problems afterwards

You will have to do some soldering, install a wot switch, and tap into the fuel line. It will probably take a more htan two hours unless you have some experiance. I would set aside an entire day just to make sure
you take your time and do it right.

edit:Not sure about wot switch, cannot remember exactly what the zex uses, thinking of NX kit.
