Default Junction plug for resistor box.

Can someone verify this is the correct plug that will plug into the junction connector C116 for wiring up a resistor box? It looks like it is, but not sure. Would like to verify before ordering.
I have an EM1.
Also, are there any other places to get this connector other than the junk yard?
Rywire - RY-B-14-M
Thanks

So that you can decide, the real C116 connector looks like this:

I am confused. What do you mean the "real" C116 connector? I understand what is going on in the junction connector with the bar connecting all the injectors positive side to 12V. I want to plug into this plug so I can put the resistor box in series with the injectors. I just want to make sure that the plug I linked plugs into the wiring harness connector.

Does it look like it may fit? If so, contact Rywire to verify that it will work.

I am not sure why you would be using the plug/connector you have referenced... I would be using the connector that matches the one found on your 4G Prelude/Accord resistor box, and that would be:

PRICE: $15.00 RY-RESISTOR-6P-GREY-F

What I would do is remove the 4 positive wires from the junction plug, insert one wire back into the junction box that terminates over in the new 6 pin plug in the paired location of the inlet wire of the resistor box, and then insert the four original injector wires that were removed from the junction plug into the new 6 pin plug in any order meeting the remaining 4 wires in the resistor box plug. Done.

The reason for the plug I linked is because I am trying to do this. https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-...2-eh6-2073540/
Photobucket fail, but you can get a basic idea.

The problem isn't connecting to the resistor box. My resistor box is just bare wires. What I am after is being able to easily switch back and forth between resistor box and no resistor box. If I can find this plug I can do that easily.
From the pictures it looks like the one I linked will plug into C116, but just wanted to make sure. I guess Ill just do as muellersfan suggested and contact Rywire. After thinking about it, they do specialized in wire harnesses, so they should know the answer. Was hopping for a quicker answer this way. There are multiple ways to achieve what I want, and I am just weighing my options.
Thanks

Default Re: Junction plug for resistor box.

The method I have outlined above is quickly reversible if necessary... by either de-pinning and re-installing these pins in the OE junction plug OR (and this method is easier), you purchase two additional MALE 6 pin plugs that correspond to the plug that I referenced from RyWire above, connect one of them to your "bare wired" resistor box and simply install 5 OE male pins with 3-4" of wire in the same order as the resistor box plug in the other one. Then join all five wires of this second plug together so that power is shared to all points of the 6-pin plug... much like the original junction plug cap does. Now, you can literally plug in the resistor box OR the junction cap for use as you need it.
