Advise on Wiring Throttle Kicker Solenoid

I'd like the idle to bump up when the A/C is turned on and return to curb idle when turned off. As is, the solenoid is energized with the ignition regardless of whether the A/C is activated or not. The relay and solenoid are new. The computer has been removed as well as the 10 amp fuse that controlled it. Here's the wiring diagram:

I joined, as an experiement, the green wire from the pressure cycling switch to the blue wire of the solenoid. In this configuration, the solenoid functioned as I wish, but I'm somewhat leery that that 'fix' without a relay would cause problems.

Suggestions would be much appreciated.
