Default Nitrous expressProton plus and purge kit

Finally getting around to installing my proton plus and purge kit wanted to make sure I have this set up right before I put it all in the truck. Connected the purge solenoid to inlet side of n2 and connect the main line from the bottle on the black nipple.Name:  null_zpsea0dac43.jpg

also if I want to make the purge tubing longer can I replace the tubing supplied and maybe t it off to have two purge lines (mainly for show)

The WOT switch can either be a mechanical switch activated at full throttle or electronically activated by TPS voltage at full throttle.

Yes the purge is installed right.

We use 3/16 tubing for the purge line but yes the 1/4 will work just fine.

I would also recommend a WOT switch because as Blwn99x said if the button is pressed at the wrong time such as before you are full throttle it can cause a back fire. The same thing could happen if you let off the throttle and not the button.

There are a couple of different ways to do the WOT like Steve-O-08 said. If you use a mechanical switch you either mount it out by the throttle linkage (If you are drive by cable) or you can mount it to the gas pedal in the cab so that when you press the pedal all the way down it hits the mounting bracket for the pedal.

The other way is to use a tps activated switch which does everything electronically. This is the best way in my opinion because you never have to worry about the switch getting hit and moved and not activating when you need it.

Here are a couple of links to your options.
TPS Switch

Mechanical Switch

Ok we'll I ordered the tps switch. The switch it shows on the diagram is that the nitrous arming switch or does it need it own? Also is the tps switch all I will need? No need for rpm window switch?
