Default Nitrous reliability

So I've been eye balling the idea of getting the ZEX kit for my 04 z which has your normal bolt ons minus a tune, but I have a few questions before pulling the trigger
1- HOW hards the install
2-how reliable will my car stay with 55/75 shot if I do it like once a month, this cars gonna be DD for next 5+ years god given.
3- will my weak *** trans be able to handle that with stock clutch without blowing up in a year.

3 - I think that depends more on how you shift than the power you are making. The less stress on the synchros the better.

A small shot like that should be fairly reliable. I would just check the AFR on nitrous to make sure your fuel jet is correctly sized.

I'd also recommend putting 1 stage colder plugs and making sure you run only 93 in the car.

With all of that considered it should be pretty reliable.
