It basically would allow you to by-pass the flow restrictor valve. it is located right after the RO unit. It looks like this (http://www.jlaquatics.com/product/ro-kpmfr/R+O+Flow+Restrictor.html)
basically you want to create a by-pass with the valve on the side where the tubes without the flow restrictor is. So when the valve is opened the water would flow fast through the RO unit

You have to find the flow restrictor like Jason says. so the flush valve would go between the restrictor and the membrane.
I take it that the red line goes to drain. So after the membrane, you will find the restrictor.
Sometimes it is just pushed into the red line at the connector to the membrane.
Here is a diagram but you will have to join to see it.

got it figured out thanks all now i guess the membrane that i bought was a 50 gal and the restrictor is a 50 gal one but the flush valve is a 100gpd so i have to make one until i upgrade to a 100 gpd

talked to Tyler on the phone from BWI, He thought that i had a 100gpd restrictor so he sent me a 100 flush valve thinking that what I had. he said he would send me a 100gpd membrane wow that blew me away.
