Default nitrous solenoid use as pruge solenoid?

I have an extra nitrous solenoid lying around, figure there isn't a difference between a nitrous solenoid and a purge solenoid..was just going to use my nitrous solenoid as a purge solenoid.

Anybody else doing this?

and look at my sweet wiring diagram and tell me if im blowing something up!

(it's a few threads down CMOOONN)

I've taken apart fuel and nitrous solenoids, slight difference in the sealing material an type of spring, wasn't sure if the "purge" noids just had a large diameter or not, thanks a lot!


now look at my diagram *shakes fist*

I used my Dynotune Nitrous Sol as a purge for a bit, it was WAAAyyy more impressive than the smaller purge noid.

ahh so maybe the purge noids have a smaller diamter so you don't wast as much juice as purging, that would make sense.

Most company's sell small niods in their purge kits. A large noid will work just fine it's just a little overkill.

Yea why would you need a big oriface for purging, as mentioned earlier its cooler which i agree. Use whatever you got lying around.
