So you want to hold the button while driving, bad idea. The correct way is to have a master arm then either a WOT switch mechanical or electronic or a nitrous controller box.

You could wire your solenoid low power side directly to 12v... but DAMN this is such a bad idea. You are really asking for big trouble. If you're really going to do it, and don't have a schematic, PM me with the parts you have and I'll make you up a "somewhat safe" schematic.

Please dont. That is a disaster waiting to happen. 1 moment of brain fart and you hit the switch without knowing. Or like an associate of mine, his friend played with the buttons while he was in the store and blew his car up. 300 shot at the push of a button, no safteys.

You know those "guys" that should never be around explosives, and guns, and anything else for that matter?? Well he is one of them.
No safety's, dry kit BEHIND the MAF, heater on for a while. ( as he said)
The story was that they were in Mexico, going to the drags. Stopped by the local stop and stab for some beer. ( can you see this getting bad allready? ) Go's in store, friend is impatient and bored, turns on ALL switches in car. ( wipers, heater, radio, N20 ) Puts leg over console to rev motor and while doing so, hit the " go baby go" button. Boom go's 02 SS
Somewhere in there lies a diferent story but that all i can get from him.

I wired one with master arm switch, WOT reed switch and push button where WOT condition had to be met before push button would work. It worked great. Had a bypass switch to bypass the push button where it would work on WOT only as well.
