Default Am i loosing hp's?

I was wondering,
I orginaly builded my motor to be n/a then before i had even tested it i installed a plate system (150shot)
Texasspeed mapped the ecu for the nitrous,

I was thinking, how many hp's am i loosing n/a because of the nitrous, i got tr6's and changed timing,

Best Regards.

It would depend on how much timing was shifted to allow for the nitrous. The only true way to find out is do dyno your car and then retune and dyno again. One easier method is to simply just get your car retuned without the nitrous.

What i am thinking about is that i have a spare ECU with the orginal map, i was thinking about remapping it for N/A and use my tr55's.

is it worth it?

depends on your build and how much timing they pulled. I went down this path and my local tuner told me i would be shorting myself maybe 5 rwhp from running the lower timing tables for a n20 tune
