Default Nitrous guys, purge ???

I will be getting a NX wet kit in the future, and I know some guys don't install the purge. I think Parish said he purges through the motor.

My question is, how do you purge through the motor with a WOT switch and a window switch? Do you have to hold the pedal to the floor for a second?

cool thing about just a normal exit purge, is that when u turn ur truck off, and turn off the bottle, u can just purge the remaining nitrous in your line. thats the main reason i got mine.

other than that, if you wanna purge through your motor, you can just spray before you run your truck.

What I use to do is floor it, and when the rpms get around 2500, flip the arming switch and it would just burn rubber and then id let off.. then im purged!

with a window switch best maybe you blip your nitrous during a burnout. but then again you are 4wd .. so best thing prolly would to just get a purge kit. I got mine from nitro-daves for like 100 bucks.

my purge button is just a button that by passes the WOT switch. i rev it to 4000rpm(in neutral) or so and bump that button a few times.

the way i see it the only reason for a seperate purge set up is if you want to show off with that plume of vapor.

Purging the vapor into the air looks better once you see someone (not you) break a piston purging a 500hp kit into the engine at low rpm.
