I wouldn't use anything more then 50. You may have messed up some of the internals. I'm not sure how though. I wouldn't out anything more then a 50 shot on stock internals. The engine just can't take it. 75 is pushing it.
As far as it stalling after you use nos.........I would say that it's the ecu trying to "fix" a problem. Maybe........too low a fuel consumption or air intake.......so it bumps one of them wayyyyyy up, and it stalls................that's my best guess there.

Sounds like your O2 sensor may be dirty or contaminated.
