Kytronic Smart Booster 2

After thinking about this for almost 20 years, finally someone made one!

Key features of Smart Boosterinclude:
  • Increases significantly acceleration and power
  • Reduces mechanical stress and temperature at high-rpm
  • Reduces gas consumption
  • Plug-and-Play, simple to setup, no battery needed
  • 16 ignition timing curves, tailored to your engine for best efficiency
  • Protected under epoxy resin in a customized red ABS plastic case

Here is a quick photo gallery of my install process and as a bonus I had to replace all of the wiring on the stator plate.



As it arrived, with free sticker!!


Old timing marks, I actually had it set more advanced than this as you can tell from the modified slots.


Real vintage wiring!


Reboot...


...with heat shrink


unit fitted (need to replace that dodgy looking coil though)




New timing Marks. My bike is kitted with a Polini so it likes to fire @ 2mm from BTDC, or around 18 degrees. This unit changes all that, it will advance it where it needs to then back it off at higher revs to lower temp, and smooth out the engine. I'm running a squish clearance of almost 2mm and I monitor the cylinder head temp so I feel comfortable running it at around 18 degrees advance at high revs, hopefully even in Sydney summer time.
