Default Chip for nitrous? or tuner?

Alright i have a 100 shot of nitrous sitting at the shop im getting ready to installl

Right now i have a Diablo sport tuner and i know that when i install my nitrous i wont be able to use it on the performance tune from diablo so i would have to uninstall it and go to stock everytime i wanted to spray.I have found someone willing to buy my tuner and was going to go with a chip to have on the go tune switches. Ill run the free tunes until i save back up and go get it dyno tuned.

How does that plan sound to everyone?
After the nitrous i dont plan on adding anything else to the car except maybe cams in the future. but later in the future. so i dont think a chip would hinder me much

Would there be any type of tuner i can switch tunes with on the go like i could with a chip? From what i understand most N20 guys are running chips.

I would get an SCT 4 bank chip with the cigarette dial to flip between tunes. Then you can have a kickass N/A tune and Nitrous tune.

I was running a SCT handheld, and decided on a custom dyno tune later on. My car ran significantly better both n/a and N20 after the dyno tune. If you don't plan on any other mods at that point, i'd really consider this instead.

just put my order in for it today. Will it come with some sort of switch to flip between tunes?
SCT 4 from AM!

Wonder if the tune they send will be better than the canned diablo tune i had.
