Go to page 19 of the fc factory service manual PDF and it gives you what wires and colors they are that connect the coils to the Ecu. Best of luck and welcome to nopistons!



If you haven't spotted the fsm area yet, here's the direct link to the one you need

The engine is from an s5? There weren't very many s5 tII's so I'm not sure, there is an s5 fsm on here though but I'm not sure what it says about the turbo
