Default What to do to my tune?

I am about to get my car tuned at a local shop and was wondering what should i do. I don't want to always run a tune for the nitrous b/c i run the car on the street more than at the strip. I was wondering if we should tune it without nitrous and when i go to the strip if i could just pull some timing out or something. I also have EFI Live to tune the car myself but too much is involved in all that. Could he make a tune that is for "street" use and a tune for "strip" use? How is there a way that i can do that to my car. The car is procharged so i don't always want to run a nitrous tune to get max performance out of the supercharger.

Any advice is apriciated!

If you have a copy of EFI Live, you have a couple of options. You could use a custom OS and hook up a switch to the PCM that alters your timing when the switch is active. Or, you could have two files - one for the N2O and one for the street. Then, just flash in the N2O tune when you need it and flash it back when done.
