Are you using the one with one or 2 plugs?

What ECU are you currently running?

If you are using the jdm ecu use the one plug assembly, if you are using the usdm ecu use the 2 plug assembly

jdm has more compression and a little more power. However this seems like a major pita. good luck with the swap.
