OK, this morning I adjusted it to make sure it's at 15 exactly, and I adjusted the idle to between 680-710 (won't give exact on my timing light) the under-hood data says idle for this manual is to be set at 680. The drive to work went well with the surge limited to about 1500rpm, which is about normal from what I remember when this car was stock.
The shifting was much improved and I can hardly detect any surge between gears or when I pull it out of gear it now drops rpm instead of surging then dropping so I must have gotten down this whole timing/idle setting thing finally. Even with help and instructions it just takes alot of time and test-drives to get it "just-so".
The TB was ported and is cleaned whenever I clean the air-filter (once a month) and I take apart the whole intake and clean it as well as the crank-case vent tubes (these can really get gunky sometimes so check once in a while guys!).
I think what I need for nitrous is a wet (non-zex system) whith all the safety stuff like blow-down tubes and heater. I figured out the little computer I need to set it is called a Progressive Controller, these things sound like the shiznit to me, so IF I do nitrous I will use one. (I'm still not 100% sure It can ever really be "safe" and it's another tank).
Thank you for the suggestions, I truly respect any opinion(s) rendered as I am still a newbie to car mod's (even though my GA16de has all the bolt-ons) I don't know jack about "nos" or even what rpm to hit it so I'll pass on it for now)
