yeah at that amount, you will want to adjust timing a bit. Not a big deal.

I have no experience with nos, but changing your timing to use it, has nothing to do with your timing belt. Its all in the timing of the spark not cam. You'll need to adjust the dizzy? or get a msd with retarding feature? something to tune the timing of the spark when nos is nossing.
