anybody tried before? saw some made in china in evilbay. does it really work? other than china, where else? whats the difference with adding a resistor?

not sure i saw a youtube vid of those a cdi from his shiny new suppliar! (i assume china) not working and it wasnt even new he said just a old 1 sold to him as new

bit i also saw this one, looks expensive though

and just to add mine has one of those resistor max rev boxs but still seems to limit to 15 or 16k

The standard cdi is not restricted!
Only restriction is the 180kh speed limiter that can be over come using a simple resistor.
The Mmax and posh boxes are simply housing a resistor.
If you put your bike on a dyno it will make power to about 14000 rpm and then the power will drop off a cliff, over reving (15000 rpm) will just kill the motor VERY quickly.
The bike will be slower ridden this way!

actually the main point here is... why do u need to 'derestrict' your gsxr?
track? touring for long distance?

for me, its both of the above. u dont want to cut short a riding trip of 2000km with a burnt cdi.
so the standard cdi acts as a backup for the trip.

judging by what u said, your rotors are in need of a replacement and u ride almost daily.
would suggest u do up your brakes before power upgrades.

so there's no derestricted cdi @ all? i understood what you said. i was thinking what a derestricted cdi can do more or different from adding a resistor. i knew about the resistor. will post some pics soon on the other thread for you to help me identify the wire. not much chance to do it recently.

wow.. stalker? hahahaha
i have proof on my mobile of u texting me for things from advice to whom my bike is sold to and what bike i am getting next...

sbf *another forum* people are idiots posting rubbish?
if they are idiots, whose the bigger idiot who kept texting me with technical advice or parts questions for AGES?

i should be the one saying. pls stop texting questions to me and stay away pls.
thanks!

i'm not interested to argue with you. but if you think i text you like i'm so hoping to learn things from you. maybe you will know the truth 1 day, not from me . a person who hides nothing has nothing to fear.

right then are we done here ? good
