loom plug question.
Hi guys,
my name is james and i own a mark rs2000 which i am in the process of getting ready to turbo.
I have been directed to you guys for some help, as people have told me you are the guys to help me.
i have brought a OFAB ECU and engine loom, what i need to know is... there is a milti plug with 10 wires which goes into the car off the engine loom, five browns,one red,one green,coupe of blacks with red strips, and a black.
the problem i have is its been chopped at the plug so need to take them into the car to the correct place, it looks like all the power up connects for ecu.
any ideas guys??????

Re: loom plug question.
no its not the same as the rs2000 loom. he told me he pulled this out of his car which had a 2.1 conversion, he gave me the ofab ecu and the cossie map sensor (one with the plug and pipe on the front) and the mounting bracket they both mount on.
im lost.

Re: loom plug question.
what colour wire do you have going into each pin of the plug, if this could be answered i think i maybe ok 
also checked all the ecu pins and they are all the same as the ofab connector apart from i have nothing connected in PIN 30 BROWN CURRENT RETURN???
