Default wiring in an OFAB loom to a zetec based mk6.

after a load of work i managed to get an MFI loom spliced into my car and the engine running, but then i was offered a FRST for a pretty good price so pulled it all back out to fit the EFI gear.

the engines in the process of being rebuilt but im having problems with the wiring - im shit when it comes to wires.

ive found posts before that have details to the OFAB ECU but im not sure where to take them?

can anyone give me a starting point or even better have a diagram showing exactly what to do? i dont mind having to suss some things out myself, i learnt alot from wiring in the MFI loom and would like to learn more about it if i can.

any help at all would be much appreciated. cheers.
