I am not sure what you are saying here, you can install the sparks plugs in any order. Just make sure the ignition coils stay in the same place. If you are asking about the firing order it is:

Firing order: 1-3-4-2

Spark plug: NGK DILKR6D11G

These come pre-gapped so no need to adjust. 18 lb-ft (foot-pounds) to tighten. Let us know if you need anything else.
