I am assuming your talking about a WOT switch for a nitrous kit. If so, the best bet is the NX TPAS (Throttle Position Activation Switch), runs off of TPS voltage. Easy to install and has a screw for fine tune adjustment for when it comes on. contact NitroDave (forum sponsor) and get one.

I can get a Zex TPS switch out to you and they work very well and are programable. PM me for a price.

Save your money and go with the standard for years. It does exactly the same, and cost a few bucks at Radio Hack. The TPS is problematic, and we see many with issues. The wot micro sw under the pedal is cleaner looking also. here's an install pic. (link in my web)

I agree... microswitch under the pedal is the way to go.
