Upgrade your ignition system with the revolutionary External Obd2 Coil On Plug (COP) controller, a plug-and-play solution designed for seamless integration with your factory Engine Control Unit (ECU). Say goodbye to complex ECU swaps or modifications – this innovative kit works harmoniously with your existing OEM ECU, offering a significant performance boost without compromising your vehicle’s emissions system.
Experience the Benefits of Coil On Plug Ignition with OBD2 Compatibility
Finally, a true plug-and-play coil on plug conversion is here for your OBD2 vehicle! This meticulously engineered kit eliminates the need for any soldering, cutting, or splicing, making installation straightforward and reversible. Crucially, our external OBD2 COP controller maintains full OBD2 compatibility, meaning you don’t need to downgrade to an older OBD1 ECU to enjoy the advantages of coil-on-plug ignition. Whether you drive an automatic or manual transmission vehicle, this kit is designed to perform flawlessly in your application.
This system is engineered to function seamlessly with your factory OBD1, OBD2A, and OBD2B ECUs in both automatic and manual configurations. The installation process is remarkably simple:
- Mount the Control Module: Choose your preferred location, whether it’s our optional battery location mount or directly onto your firewall or shock tower.
- Distributor Connection: Disconnect your distributor and connect our custom-designed harness to both the engine-side and distributor-side plugs.
- Ground and Coil Pack Connection: Secure the ground wire and plug the harness into your chosen coil packs.
With these simple steps, your engine will be running with a vastly improved coil on plug ignition system, enhancing performance and reliability.
What’s Included in Your External OBD2 COP Kit?
Your purchase includes our state-of-the-art external coil on plug control module and an OBD-specific patch harness. This harness is expertly crafted to integrate flawlessly into your vehicle’s existing wiring system, utilizing an easy, two-plug connection. We offer patch harnesses tailored to each OBD type: OBD1, OBD2A, and OBD2B. Prior to ordering, it’s essential to verify your vehicle’s OBD connection style to ensure compatibility.
For added convenience and a cleaner installation, we offer an optional battery location mount specifically designed for the control module. While this mount is not mandatory, it provides a quick and easy mounting solution. Alternatively, you can securely mount the control module directly to the chassis as many users prefer.
Please note that this kit does NOT include coil packs or a coil mounting bracket. These components are available separately and can be purchased through our ignition parts collection CLICK HERE.

With tens of thousands of miles of testing on each platform, we have ensured exceptional reliability and performance with zero issues reported.
Important Considerations for Coil On Plug Conversion
Converting to coil on plug ignition with our kit assumes you have a functioning distributor and ECU with wiring in good working order. Our system cleverly bypasses the stock coil and ICM ignitor, allowing you to remove the distributor cap and rotor and install a sleek, low-profile billet cap. By bypassing these components, you can effectively extend the lifespan of an aging OEM distributor or utilize an aftermarket unit, eliminating the commonly failing OEM parts from the ignition system.
Synchronization Requirement: Our kit incorporates a synchronization procedure for optimal performance and reliability. Upon initial startup, the engine will turn over for a minimum of one to two complete revolutions. This process is necessary to confirm engine position before initiating spark into the cylinders.
Ignition Timing: We highly recommend checking your ignition timing with a timing light after installation, especially if you are using an aftermarket distributor. Bypassing a malfunctioning coil or ICM ignitor can potentially alter the ignition timing once these components are removed from the ignition circuit.
Resistor Spark Plugs: It is mandatory to use resistor spark plugs with this kit, as with any coil on plug ignition system. This is crucial for proper system operation and to prevent electrical interference.
Coil Connectors: Our harness is constructed using early model K series style coil connectors. These connectors are compatible with 01-06 K20/K24 and D17 coil packs, offering a wide selection of readily available and affordable coil options.
COILS AND MOUNTING PLATE ARE NOT INCLUDED. Please remember to purchase these separately to complete your coil on plug conversion.
