I drive ~25 miles a day, sometimes a little more with taking the wife to work and most of it in city driving. If I was in boost like you say I'd be in jail today

Without nitrous I dyno'd soething like 575hp...i dont remember, see the graphs on page 2 if you click my sig.
Meth will lower IAT's significantly enough that as a result you can raise your timing. I know that its essentially an octane booster which is why I run it at 100% on my M3 instead of running race fuel.

OT
How much of an increase in power did you get with your cams?
