Trailing coil wiring

I'm trying to wire up the trailing coil from scratch into my FB.
I believe I got everything I need from the FAQ, but I wanted to double check to be sure.

2 wire connector:
+B on the ignitor (there is also a lead that goes to + on the T1 coil)
+12 on one T2 coil

So, can I just wire both of these to +12v IGN? Seems plausible enough.. I was wondering if there was a special reason why the +12v sources were seperated. The ohmmeter shows that the positive terminals are not connected together on the coils.

4 wire connector:
TAC (Tachometer out) Yellow wire w/ blue stripe
CPU1 (IGf-T) (Not used) Blue wire w/ red stripe
CI (IGs-T) Trailing Select Brown wire w/ yellow stripe
ST (IGt-T) Trailing Trigger Blue wire w/ yellow stripe

Does this look correct? BTW, what does the IGf-T signal do? Is it just engine speed for the stock ECU?

IGf-T is the spark confirmation that goes back to the ECU... I'm not sure what the ECU does with it.


I'm pretty sure you're OK on the rest of it though.

I don't know why the 2 wire connector seperated the +12v wires...
