Default Surging at activation

Here is what happens,when I go to spray for the first time after I open my bottle it surges!I will go WOT and then hit the nitrous button and then it will jerk like there is air in the line,but there isn't!I have a purge on it and have purged the **** of of the bastard over and over and everytime I hit it for the forst time after it has been sitting for days it jerks and then hauls ***!I do not like that seeing that really puts even more strees on the tranny than the nitrous already does!Does ANYONE have this problem?
I have a bottle heater and I keep the pressure at about 925-1000PSI all the time before I spray it and have purged it like you would not beleive to see if that would help and it really does not help!
Any help here would be great and appreciated
Thanks guys

not a pressure problem....do you have a FPSS installed?? it will often cause this condition as well as not letting the juice not to come on at all if its not adjusted properly.

I checked all the wiring everywhere and everything is just fine there!Everyone says it is air in the line but if you only knew how much I purge it and it still does it,pretty aggravating though!

But if the line from the purge noid to your n2o noid is long that could leave enough air for a not direct hit, but if your noids are mounted right next to each other then I dont know

The purge and nitrous solonoid are directly next to each via a fitting but I do have a good amount of braided hose from the solonoid to the nozzle which as far as I understand will have air in the braided line seeing the line from the noid to the nozzle is not getting purged,the line from the bottle to the noids are what is purged!Make sense???
Thanks for all the help so far guys
Much appreciated
