Default Tuning?

I have an 04 GTO A4.
I dynoed yesterday and pushed 432.81 RWHP and 454.30 Torque. The shot of nitrous didn't hurt the numbers any!
I was told not to mess with the timing, i have a predator tuner and have heard from others to advance the timing, along with other basic tunes. all that was really done was he richened the fuel up 20%... to be honest i felt i kinda got ripped on my tune. Anyhow, since i have the equipment, any suggestions would be great, as i'm going to the dragstrip tommorow.

If you were on the dyno and the AFR and KR looked good LEAVE IT ALONE. Advancing timing is a big no-no with n20.
