Won't be tracking the car. Adding the N20 for the fun factor and to get up to speed quicker when we have our MESV cruises.
Since I don't run a wideband, should I have it tuned after the install and pull a couple degrees of timing to be safe? Or, am I going to be OK with that small of a shot of juice and leave things alone?
Depends on a few factors. How much do you want to spray? If it's tuned already, are you sure they didn't lean on it, or add any timing? If it's been tuned, I think you should have it checked at least. Dynoed, scanned, check A/F with a WB.

If you're only going to spray it with say 75 hp, you probably don't have to do a thing. If you wanna hit it with 100+, then you need to tune for it.
