what kind of kit do u have. the only kit i am aware of that works this way is the zex kit, and u can buy a module to hook to any kit. but did u have wires that go to the tps. if u dont then no it will spray when u hit the switch.

I don't tink ur supposed to splice into a TPS wire, I think it has a micr-switch you mount on the Throttle body.

No it should not flow as soon as you arm it.

I'm not sure of the TPS colors but I'm betting you hooked it to the wrong one.

It should only feed under full throttle.

Google ZEX PDF instrutions and see if you can find the correct wiring.

GO to the zex website and follow the install instructions. And do not turn on your car if you just sprayed into your intake with the car off.

It is tough typing drunk.

So im bored and i fount this for you.. http://www.zex.com/Base/Instructions/ZEX109.pdf

Your engine will fill up with nitrous. Once you start the engine the first spark will be a really lean (all NO2) and will hurt stuff, if it'll start at all (too lean). If it was a wet system it would be even worse as it would explode all the fuel and NO2.

Just turn the bottle off and see if the 'noid clicks when you want it to.

Turning the nitrous on at idle (while running) would be bad too.

its the center wire on the tps. make sure you go through the part where the nitrous kit learns your tps signal. you have to do a few things with the key on, and the black button on the box. its all in the install. if you didnt teach it wide open throttle, then its probably that
