BTW I know that there are diagrams in the stickies. I don't do good with visual learning I'd just much rather somebody write down step by step what to hook where and that would be the biggest help. This is a dry kit

Arming switch has 3 terminals.
Power = 12 volt source (keyed)
ACC = output to a wot switch or TPS switch
Ground = ground chassis

Purge switch is usually 2 terminals
in
and
out.

Most people wire the purge hot in hot out to the purge noid. Purge noid remaining wire to ground.

If both solenoids are grounded, run power into the switch then out of switch to the solenoids. You really should use a set of relays the switchs aren't meant for that much electricity.

Looks like arming switch with no wide open switch. Not a good way to install.
But here's your request:
Battery to one side of switch, other side of switch to solenoid. Other wire of solenoid to ground. Flip switch it will spray.
Battery to purge button, other side of button to solenoid. Other wire of solenoid to ground.
The solenoid wire are usable for hot or ground doesn't matter which.
Do not apply nitrous unless RPMs are above 3000 and you have the car WOT.
Then invest in your missing pieces.

The battery should be taken as a "switched connection "for this type of install. (To avoid leaving the switchs on.
Then when you move on to relays you can wire the power side of relays to the positive post. Or the auxillary post on the drivers side for power.

Switched connection = power only when key is turned on.
Depending on the size of purge solenoid, you may or may not need a relay.
I'm running a 'master blaster' and you can tell the difference with the relay.
And i don't have to worry about burning up the switch from to much draw.
