Default STS with nitrous.. anybody?

Hey guys,
Now that i have a 80E with Stock torque converter it is horrible out of the hole.
I went from a Yank 3000 4L60E cutting 2.00 60's to a Stock TC 4L80E cutting 2.3 60's.
(we went to the local short track... all 500')
Once it gets out it pulls awesome.. I have aquired a nitrous kit that needs a couple parts.
So before i start ordering parts, what would you guys suggest?

I have been thinking of a 35 wet shot to get out of the hole and then switch to a 35 dry shot to keep the air cool.
Something simple to start with?
Haha, i dont have a traction problem anymore but its slow now..

Interstate rolls are alot better though thats the only thing..

Why do you want to switch from a wet to dry in mid stream?

Im just thinkin out loud.....
the kit has a purge 'noid so i thought about using it for a small dry shot to keep everything cooler. Although my IATs stay pretty low with the A/W Intercooler.

Dont be hating...

I only have 2 traction tires... haha i just need to get my 60's down.
Also, a 'Caltrac" similiar traction setup will be added...

My buddy has a 81? Monte Carlo that we put a stout 355 in with a TH350.. we are dead even from a dig or roll.. its all who gets the jump. I figure a 35 shot would give me a edge now that i have a REAL transmission.
