1-you need the resistor installed. it reduceds the voltage while the car is running. neccessary in bosch's mind.

2-the brown wire goes to the starter, i think terminal 50. use a wiring diagram from any 160 or 240 with that ignition system. this BYPASSES the resistor during cranking, so that 12v gets to the ignition. again, bosch thought it was important. good luck, chuck.
