The biggest thing with a Nitrous application is proper fuel and spark timing. The rule of thumb is 2 degrees for every 50hp (I think it's pretty conservative). I've never run Nitrous on a 4cyl before, but on my last engine in my Iroc after the LS1 I ran a 2 stage 300hp shot with a progresive controller and MSD 6AL with timing computer. Basically I pulled 10 degrees total timing, 4-5 degrees on a 150 always worked good for me (I was running 38degrees total but these cars are completely different and my motor was built for it). I'd just make sure the timing comes down when you activate the nitrous, and make sure your fuel map is good. Most nitrous kits factory recomendations for jets usually run a little rich anyways to stay on the safe side.
