Default LT1 guys, how much timing on juice?

I was looking into putting together a nitrous tune for my car via LT1 Edit. Which tables do you play with? Is load vs. advance all I need to alter? Or do I need to fool with the others? How much timing should I run?

well im running a 100 shot, and i was going to pull 4 degrees, but i ended up not doing that, cause you also loose HP from pulling timing if you run N/A!

my kit is a compucar wet kit...im already on second bottle and have had no problems, cept this plastic piece shattering on my brake booster to my vacuum hose somehow!

I was going to do a nitrous tune for strip only. Load it when I was going to the track. I'm not sure what total advance in LT1 Edit would be because there's no parameter for "total advance" with just one number. My advance at its highest point is 44 degrees!

There is a table in the pcm for traction control spark retard. If you do not have traction control you can set that table to 4 degrees across the rpm range and use the traction control input to the pcm as the enable. There should be more info about this on cz28.com

I ran a search on cz28.com. I looked through both pages of nitrous and pcm forums but no luck. Doesn't look like they keep much in their archives. I ran a search too but didn't find anything. How would I trigger the traction control exactly?

I have never heard this one either, but sounds like a great way to do this. If you have any more information about it I would really like to know.

Edit: Found this diagram on shbox's site which shows the pin for TCS spark retard request: http://shbox.com/1/1995_pcm4.jpg
Do you know what kind of voltage it is supposed to get to retard the spark?

Thanks for the link. Still, all it says is "put a switch on the wire." It doesn't say to switch +12V to it or anything.. Am I missing something?

I would assume it to be 12 volt, but who knows. Maybe they'll chime back in. What about the parameter boxes for abuse mode and stall mode retard?

I haven't tried this on my car yet, but I would assume it is active high(+12). If not, then try ground. I doubt it is +5, but I guess you could try that if you want to be extra safe.
Not sure what you mean by those parameter boxes.

There's two boxes next to the button for traction control retard. They have zeros in them. One's for abuse mode and the other for stall mode. I do not know what those are.
