Thread: Purging...

so im getting closer to installing my wet-kit, but i dont have a purge setup. how/where do you guys set up your purge systems.close to the bottle or in the bay???
also is the purge solenoid the same as a nitrous solenoid???


i searched nitrous and purge and nothing(useful) poped up, im heading over to google now...



thanx guys and pics are a plus

I was actually going to make a thread like this. I'd like to know this as well. Is there a great benefit to it?

ok i know very little about nitrous, but one thing i know is that you need to purge it because you dont want a nitrous back fire for one, an for two so it doesnt fry your engine.. you basicly bleed the system of any air in the lines by purging it.. but seriously google will be your friend i think on this subject

i did my google search and most people are purging under the hood with a line running it where ever...so my 2nd question is a purge soleniod same as a nitrous solenoid, just opening it up and closing it for a brief moment???

are you going to be running a wot switch, or the button press (fast and the furious)?

lol,F&F sounds awsome!!! but ill be running a WOT Switch...

A purge solenoid functions the same as a nitrous solenoid yes. It just opens and closes to bleed the line of air, or to drop the nitrous pressure if necessary. Most of the time, and in my case, you don't use a relay when wiring up the purge so you can't just hold the button. You have to pulse it. Mine runs out under the hood onto the cowl and sprays straight up the center of the windshield.

im going for the sleeper approach, so im going to have to purge under the car or some where crazy...

You can't really be sleeper with a purge kit, a trained ear can easily pick that up. You don't really need it to run your system it is just recommended for best results.

i purged in to my wheel well (kinda) i wanted to hide mine so it just made the noise thats it, i like the sleeper look
