That i can't answer,I don't know how much hp you would lose,and it would depend on how and when the nitrous would come on into the run.

Then running around the pits having the timing fixed at 28 it may be a little sluggish,I would think you'd want to run the engine with some type of a timing retard when the nitrous was activated,not just fixed.

Sounds a little complicated the way you want to run this engine,you could get into trouble doing things this way,you need to start safe and work your way back up to optium hp,the Et's and MPH will prove this.

Tuning nitrous requires small movements,with timing,just not guessing you got it right,you are going to get in trouble the way you want to do it
