Be safe and get a tune. Nitrous is completely safe if your car is tuned right. I have never heard of the IAT trick so idk

I am spraying a 125 shot through a plate kit and my car runs perfect and just turned over a 100K so I say you will be fine.

Please get rid of those JUNK TR6's and pick up some NGK BR7EF.

Do you got a wideband and fuel pressure gauge?

With -6* of timing you will be fine and that is what I would do vs the other way. You should upgrade to Hp Tuners that way you can be 100% sure as your tune goes.

Like suggested above switch to the BR7EF spark plug. Personaly I am not afan of using the Iat to remove timing but many people do it.

As long as the tune up is right you should enjoy the added power with no issues.
