1.8t to 2.0t Coil Conversion + ICM Delete (+ troubleshooting)

[@jonnielawrence]

Doing an AGU/AUQ conversion into an Exige, have been struggling with coil wiring and i think you've just saved me a fair chunk of change on looms/conversions/and plugs. Thank you man!

[@Plarx_]

Fantastic video. Not using the ICM delete patch so this is a great help!!!

[@russwood1036]

Nice video man thanks for sharing 🤙🏻

The icm trigger does not go in 1234 order to match the 1234 coil on the agu engine

[@KadenBusick]

So to not delete the imc I would follow the aeb/porche which would mean I cut the harness by the cylinder head?, then wire the wires to the connector that connects to the new harness right ?

[@KadenBusick]

And the deutsh connector is the connection piece u wire the wires to in the harness kit?

[@PawnSacrifice]

@@KadenBusick I am slightly lost with this to be honest, it's been a while - if you're using a kit just follow what they're doing, the ICM delete is a cable, what you're taking out is after that so there shouldn't be anything to cut, from memory.

Ive got a passat with AEB engine so i have to follow the second diagram AEB/Porsche conversion right ? So i dont need the icm delete connector

[@PawnSacrifice]

I had to have a quick look back, but that sounds right - assuming you're doing the same as I have and cut the loom back before the ECM, you could keep it, but it'd just be extra wires - I cut out a lot for neatness.

[@plamenspasov6723]

@@PawnSacrifice thank you! There are some conversion kits out there on ebay with icm delete connector and 3 to 4 pin connectors for the coils - as they say no wire cutting only plug and play.. do you think thats reliable

[@PawnSacrifice]

@@plamenspasov6723 no idea, all I can say is I didn't want too much wiring in the engine bay as there's a lot of slack with the VW/Audi loom already. But if you're not happy cutting and crimping, that could be the way to go.

@@PawnSacrifice thank you very much! Learned a lot of stuff from u mate, cheers

[@thegodfather5176]

What would be the benefit of doing this conversion, I have an Audi A4 b5 1.8t AJL and thinking about doing this but was wondering how much of an improvement it is

[@PawnSacrifice]

Reliability - I needed to replace at least one coil on mine and kept reading what a pain the ICM is so I took the opportunity to upgrade.

[@kadeemmeggett6324]

I de pinned my Icm and just plug them in directly from wire to wire

[@tyty64882]

Good stuff

[@helgimohr7167]

Do you know which order the AGU engine triggers go?

[@jayswin2]

Another great video...wish I had a pound for every time you said "essentially" though....😅😅👍

[@PawnSacrifice]

Thanks, and yes, I almost burned my computer and my ears when I was doing the edits.

[@kadeemmeggett6324]

So 1 go to 4 3 go to 2

[@PawnSacrifice]

For the setup I had I just followed the diagram at around the 15min mark - it's been so long now (need to get in and sort the last bits).
