-====== 2G Plug Wire Swap and CAS Inversion Details ====== 
- 
-When installing a '95 EPROM ECU (or '96) on car with a non-'​95/'​96 style cam angle sensor, you have to rearrange the plug wires. ​ You will also want to check the "Use non-95/96 style cam angle sensor"​ checkbox in the Misc tab of the ECU Config tab (called "​Invert CAS" option in the ''​ECU->​Miscellaneous''​ dialog in the older V2 application). 
- 
-If you don't know whether you have a '​95/'​96 style cam angle sensor or not, check the passenger side of the valve cover for an externally mounted cam angle sensor. ​ If one is present, you'll see it installed in the area shown below.

- 
-If, as the picture illustrates,​ you have nothing installed in that location, then you have a '​95/'​96 cam angle sensor and do *not* want to check the "Use non-95/96 style cam angle sensor"​ checkbox and you do *not* need to rearrange your plug wires. 
- 
-====== Process ====== 
- 
-Refer to the image below.

- 
-The illustration on the left shows the plug wiring order for a stock ECU with stock cam angle sensor (any 2G model year). ​ Note that cylinders 1 and 4 go into one coil and then cylinders 2 and 3 go into the other. ​ If you install a '​95/'​96 ECU into a car with a non-'​95/'​96 style cam angle sensor, then the order is reversed. ​ But in either case, the plug wires for cylinders 1 and 4 will go into the one coil.  And the plug wires for cylinders 2 and 3 will go into the other. ​ For either given coil, it doesn'​t matter which terminal is used for which cylinder. ​ It only matters that 1 & 4 go into the *same* coil and then 2 & 3 go into the other. 
- 
-So, that said, if you are using a '​95/'​96 ECU in a car with a non-'​95/'​96 style cam angle sensor, use the ordering on the right. ​ Otherwise, the ordering on the left should be correct. 
- 
-====== COP Systems ====== 
- 
-If you have a Coil-On-Plug system, you need to swap primary ignition wires from the ECU instead of swapping spark plug wires. ​ On a 2G, you would interchange the Black/Blue wire from ECU pin 10 with the Brown/Red wire from ECU pin 23.  On a 1G, you would interchange the Yellow wire from ECU pin 54 with the Yellow/Red wire from ECU pin 55.  In either case, you can swap the wires either at the ECU or at the under-hood Ignition Power Transistor connector. ​ The wire color remains the same on both ends. 
- 
-Note that primary-wire swapping described for the COP setup could just as well be used in lieu of swapping plug wires even if you don't have a COP system. ​
