We lock out our timing and use a retard thats triggered with the spray. 1.5-2 degrees retard for every 50 horsepower is typically a good place to start.

Sounds fine what do your plugs look like? Usually by the time you engage the nitrous 3500 or above you advance is all in anyway. I've never ran spray without a locked out distributer.
