Do you have a controller so you can bleed it in out of the hole? Will be interesting since you are already running excellent 60' times. You might just bump us back a notch!

There is no doubt it will help at the big end! I had an IRS GTO that was stuck around 1.50 60 ft/times. I managed a 1.49 one time but most were always around 1.50-1.52. Using a progressive controller to bleed in the nitrous while experimenting with different delays, I was able to get down to consistent 1.41-1.42's. I was surprised at what a few tenth/sec delays could do for the 60 ft., even adding just 50-75 horse with the nitrous. By that time the tires were planted and the extra power still had enough time to improve the 60 ft/times.
