Default 1.6 cop question

I picked up a set of cop's for my basically stock miata. Running mspnp2 now. Working out a couple more things before I boost. The guy I bought it off of said he picked it up off a guy who made them here.I am feeling like I will have to rerun the wires as they are not run how I see any of the schematics on here, but wanted to ask first.

This picture shows pins 2,4,6,7 wired up, and a jumper from 6 to 5. . . . Like i said I think this is set up for batch, but in my head I''m getting confused the more I think about it. If this is set up properly is there any schematics anywhere on how to wire up the cop's then? Any clarity would be appreciated.

I'm basing my info mostly on this writeup, but can't find anything different anywhere else. Thanks for the clarity.

I think I've got it. . . it is set up right, but no ground, can the ground just be run to the engine ground . . . . will this make a difference? and this is not set up sequential but batch right? ? let me know if I'm wrong. . . thanks

I have been, just new to all this. I wasn't ready to jump into this project, but a friend of a friend told me he had a set. I thought they were set up correctly but wanted to make sure. I'm now thinking I should build a set myself as this set seems wrong. Again, didn't want to post here because I didn't want to get blasted, but I'm just not understanding what I'm reading. Don't have people around me to get me over the hump. I'm not understanding what the jumper is for, and I think it goes from 3-4, not where it's supposed to be. I don't think I can fix this set how it's set up, which is where I'm at now. But still want to learn so I can make it myself. I just needed a little direction so I can make it work, or start over. . . thanks.

well you need 6 wires coming out that ignitor if you look at the diagram in the link.

make yours look just like that.

look at your connector right to left, you have:

coil 2 &3 trigger
missing the ground
tach pull up from stock ECU - going somewhere, but not to tach wire on dash
pull up resistor to 12v - but tach wire not going to coils
12v
coil 1 & 4 trigger.

in the least, you need the ground wire running to your coils.
