If your running a stock tune you should be alright. I have ran stock tune (and a more aggressive timing than stock with 150 and race gas) with race gas, gapped TR6 .036" and been fine. Tuning really should be a future mod, there is so much left in your combo. GL

Personally I dont recommend dyno tuning for nitrous unless you have no other way, if you have a scanner, you can dial it in right on the street, hm...meant drag strip 
since most dyno's dont load the engine correctly, there is the chance w/o knowing the load you set the AFR then run it on the track or a real load and POP goes the block.
