| Post subject: | My Self-Made COP Setup |
I bought a set of coils off of 89Mirageman a while back and while I HAD used them before I had never had a proper COP plate for them. I had been looking for quite some time for a decent plate but only found ones in excess of $100. Well I finally found a cheap one on Ebay but it was made to be used in conjunction with 3.5 300c coils. I went down to the mom and pop hardware store and got some threaded aluminum spacers and some stainless bolts and stop nuts. I drilled some new holes, mounted the coils, and got a little creative with the wiring by adding some red wire loom. Here is the end result. Tell me that doesnt look cool! http://www.4g61t.org/gallery/v/members/ ... 8.jpg.html http://www.4g61t.org/gallery/v/members/ ... 9.jpg.html |

That COP setup looks really good! I was thinking about doing my own COP setup but I am no where near running out my stock coils, but once I upgrade my turbo and start making some more power I really want to do something like this. So what coils did you end up using? Also how much do you have in the setup? |

If anyone is interested I have a couple more plates left for Intrepid Coils. I have all the required items to build another COP setup if anyone is interested in purchasing one pre-made. |

I have a Cyclone intake manifold so the mounting for the stock coil pack was impossible. I always wanted to go with a COP because it makes the engine look more modern as well as cleans up the engine bay by not having to use plug wires and have a coil just lying there. Anyway, I bought the coils for $40 IIRC, the plate was $34 shipped, and I think I have about $8 in the spacers, nuts, and bolts. The wiring I just did myself. I think it turned out pretty good if I do say so myself. The coils are from a 2.7 Intrepid BTW. I really wanted the 300c coils because all I would have had to do for the plate is just get the hardware and I would've been set. But because the plate was meant to be used with 3.5 coils I had to redrill holes for the 2.7 ones. I really like the way they look and I think the engine idles smoother and the throttle response is alot more crisp with the COP setup. As soon as I get new rear struts (or I should say as soon as I get enough money) I'll be driving it to work and back everyday so I'll keep you updated on how well the engine responds as far as MPG. |

Just for reference, there is an insanely detailed thread about COP going on over at galantvr4.org: http://www.galantvr4.org/ubbthreads/sho ... =0&fpart=1 For those not signed up, I'm sure you can still see it; I hope. Looks like they want to upgrade and also confirm whether the COP with Chrysler coils are worth their weight. |

That thread has an insane amount of reading material. I want a cut and dry....plain and simple....wiring diagram to install a COP setup in the Mirage. Anyone have one? Would be much appreciated. |

There isn't one, lol. IMO this is the best solution for a cop setup, sparktech makes really nice products. |

I can see if I can find you my old one. You have to know if they are 12v or 6v. Intrepid ones are 6v. if they are 12v coils: connect the yellow wire(sometimes different, refer to your ecu pinout 54 for real color) to the positive of #1 coils. connect the yellow&red wire(sometimes different, refer to your ecu pinout 55 for real color) to the positive of #2 coils. What ever wire left over is the ground(not the white wire, or any of the previous colors, might be black/white), connect this to the ground or negative side of all coils.(should be 4 wires to 1 ground wire) if they are 6v coils: connect the yellow wire(sometimes different, refer to your ecu pinout 54 for real color) to the positive of #1coil, then connect the negative of #1coil to the positive of the #4 coil . connect the yellow wire&red wire(sometimes different, refer to your ecu pinout 55 for real color) to the positive of #2coil, then connect the negative of #2coil to the positive of the #3 coil . What ever wire left over is the ground(not the white wire, or any of the previous colors, might be black/white), connect this to the ground or negative side of #4 and #3 coils.(should be 2 wires to 1 ground wire) |
