Dear All

question on ignition, how much can the standard ignition and CDI do for boost.

1bar?1.5bar?

is the ignition weak or very strong that do not need to change.

Do i need to upgrade the CDI or direct coil?

thanks.

The stock ignition system is already direct coil on plug, if you didnt already know. Ive never heard of people upgrading the ignition system, but seeing how it seems to be fine up to 10lbs of boost, id think the extra 4 to 1bar would be fine. I think its probably more about choosing the right plug.
