If your engine has the coilpack centrally mounted on the inlet manifold then you need the PFC with the code on the side that reads "PFC-GC8D..."

If the coilpack is offset to the passenger side, then you need the PFC whose code is "PFC-GC8F..."

The PFC has OEM style sockets, so the existing loom's 3-plug multi-connector plug's straight in a la OEM - no extra harness adaptor required.

Yes. It should be the correct one for your car's engine/ECU loom.
