Tuned RD 500.

[lasse2t]

Hi everyone! I am a new member on this forum and i am from Sweden.
I have developed my rd 500 for a while now and this is what i have done so far.
1:Ported cylinders.
2:Ported original reedblock whith Hyteech reeds.
3:1GE ign-box.
4:Jollymoto.
5:Standard ypvs box. (Will put on a adjustable controller later on).
6:36 mm Lectron carbs.
It's only lightly tuned for the moment, 110 RWP. More to come later on.
It pulls well from just above idle and upp to aprox 11500 rpm.

My Question is, Is there any more performance gain if i put on a adjustable igniton-box? Maybe more low and bottom end power?
Best regard from Sweden.

Sure. BDK has a dyno curve for their CDI mod where they mesured +8 HP.

I'd rather use a programmable ignition from www.zeeltronic.com as it's much cheaper than the BDK stuff. And fully programmable, too - not just a changing of a curve slope like BDK.
