Default Nitrous Install

Can anyone out there tell me which wire (color) on the Throttle Body harness is the TPS wire going to the computer? And second can you tell me how I can pick up a RPM signal?

I am going to install a nitrous kit with a window switch on my C6 GS and these are answers I need if anyone can help, much appreciated.

THANKS
Don

It's been a while since I done my install but I think the throttle wire is green. for the rpm I think I used a purple wire to one of the coil packs and set the widow switch to 4 cylinder or something like that, whichever setting makes it read right.

Please Follow this layout

Tach Wire: Passenger side of vehicle – Main coil harness plug – Top row of wires – second wire form the left (Green).
TPS Wire: On the ECM, TP sensor 1 is on the other connector and is #65 dark Green (falling) TP sensor 2 is on same connector and is #63 Purple (rising), OR purple wire coming from TB wiring harness

What window switch are you currently using. This way I can best help you.

Bumping this thread for some assistance. Could I follow the specified wires to install this window switch? (c6 corvette)
If not can someone point me in the right direction as to how. Also Im assuming the output goes to the microswitch under the pedal, and the to the solenoid, or vise versa? Not sure what order to install them in.
