RE: timing and nitrous
every 50 shot needs a timing retard of -2. So, 100shot needs -4 and so on. Or run racing fuel on the first 50 and then retard -2 after that.

RE: timing and nitrous
Yea, ask them if you can get a 2 or 4 bank chip so you can get a tune for nitrous and one when your not using it. This setup works alot better than one tune for nitrous when your not using it.

RE: timing and nitrous
You never want to advance timing ever when your running nitrous shot of any size.
