Don't want you to feel ignored, but I'm not an NX expert. Is it safe and can it hurt the engine - my understanding is yes to both, but I don't know at what point it becomes dangerous...

Right forum, wrong section of the forum. Try clicking on the FI/Nitrous section

Also, definitely recommend using the search tool, you'll find soooo much information that you may not even need to ask a question at all

There's alot to figure in if You want Your Motor to last , Such as --> How much HP do You plan on Spraying , A Good Nitrous Tune , Safety Components (window switch etc.) Your HP Limits on Stock Motor or Forged Motor all play a Role and will help You , Make plans and think things over before deciding on a Kit (Wet or Dry) instead of just buying it and throwing it on .

Important note... NOS is illegal on the street. Don't let "The Man" catch you with it.

It is? Where would that be? I think it depends on the state or locale wouldn't you say?
