Looking for some guidance...


-wiring type (I know higher quality is always better) what if i cannot find something local for a even reasonable price.
- wiring shielding do any of the wires need to be shielded? The signal wires from ECU? The +/- going to reach coil?
- Can I completely disconnect & remove all of the related stock components? (The ignitor etc)
-would it be better to cut the factory wiring engine harness, and just run all new wires for the trigger ECU-> CDI box

I think that's it for now...

Thanks for help

I love pro harnesses, but are they needed? my view is no.

Here is an example of doing up a pretty simple adaption harness that plugged into the normal loom on a FD3S.

None of this is hard, but if you dont have the correct crimpers and plugs (DT series minimum) then you are pretty much wasting your time and better to leave it to a 'professional' Same if you cant read a wiring diagram or fault find.

In this below instal for example there was a factory printing fault for one wire in the harness from Dynatek! this does happen and you need to be on it to find these kinds of errors and they do and can happen, if you will be making mistakes of your own due to lack of attention or poor equipment in construction then please get someone else to make it for you.

Bit of background for people, I developed COP systems for the 13B-REW many years ago, field proven, this is one of my old systems below (CDI set up)
