Default Unsure about wire on MSD Window switch

I dont know if the yellow 18ga wire that supplies the ground to my solinoids should be wired directly to the solinoids or if it should be wired to a relay. It just seems funny that you would supply the ground with the little wire from the MSD unit. I'd be affraid of burning it up. How did you guys run yours?

Yellow should run through your Fuel Pressure Safety Switch (FPSS) then to ground.

Thanks for the replies!
So I run the yellow wire to the FPSS and then from the FPSS to a relay?

That's right. Run the yellow wire from the switch to the FPSS, and run the ground wire from the relay to the other side of the FPSS.

Fly By wire cars you will need a tps activation switch. That switch will have a hot output,(once wot is met) that output wire will run to the 86 pin.
