Vortex Ignition
Vortex Ignition
Does anyone run this ignition? If so, what are the results of the change. Good,bad, no change. Thanks, Bob
I have this ignition on mine. I'm running it with a 2000 CR250Does anyone run this ignition?
stator and flywheel.
Unfortunately, I can't give you any info on changes since I
started out with it. I can tell you it has a lot of capability
in regards to multiple maps available. I have a hybrid 2000
CR250 map that compensates for the differences between
the 250 and 500 pulse generator location.
If you are rolling in dough, you can buy a programmer and
software from Vortex and create your own, or you can do
like I did and take it to a friend that has one and let him
do the work while you provide the beers. Also, Vortex will
reprogram your ignition, just tell them what you want.
I used to run JD ignitions on my 250s and this is every bit as
good.

if you get one get vortex to put this map on it, change the 8000+ if you want, but the important part of the map is the 250-1000 rpm

the 450 will have less power and will be harder to start, and will be heavier, but to make up for it it will require more maintenance.
