Default Which wire is the throttle position sensor?

I'm assuming its somewhere on the throttle body. Anyone know which color(s) it is? I'm using in place of WOT switch on nitrous install.

On my 99 its the blue wire, on a meter, you should see 0-5V, voltage increases as the pedal is depressed.

NVMD I think I found the correct information finally on the web.

Hook the TPS wire to the "Blue" wire coming off the throttle position sensor pigtail on the throttle body.

If this is not correct please let me know. Thanks.
