Don't screw around with nitrous if you don't know what you are doing.

Get it professionally installed - or your "friend" might need to buy a new motor.

Do you mean timing as in base timing? If so, it won't help much on the Skunk2 Stage 2 cams. The engine will behave totally different with these cams compared to stock cams, so your engine would want different ignition timing at different rpm's and at different throttle position. Your best bet is to get a standalone and fine tune the car.
