Universal Parts GY6 Performance CDI - AC Ignition
Description
Eliminate the factory rev limiter and let your engine reach its full potential with the Universal Parts GY6 Performance Racing CDI. Designed specifically for AC-fired GY6 50cc, 125cc, and 150cc engines, this unit removes the electronic RPM ceiling and features a re-mapped ignition advance curve for sharper throttle response, improved acceleration, and a potential top-speed increase of 5–10 MPH on most stock and modified machines.
Housed in a gold anodized aluminum finned heat-sink case labeled “New Racing C.D.I” with a printed advance curve chart. Connects via the standard 6-pin (4+2) green rounded male plug — plug-and-play on most Chinese-style GY6 wiring harnesses.
Important: This CDI is compatible with AC-fired electrical systems only. Verify your system type before ordering — if your scooter has a battery-dependent ignition (DC), this unit will not work.
Key Features
- Unrestricted Rev Limit: Removes the factory RPM ceiling — essential for big-bore and high-cam builds.
- Optimized Advance Curve: Re-mapped ignition timing for a hotter, more precise spark at higher RPMs and maximum combustion efficiency.
- Gold Anodized Aluminum Housing: Finned heat-sink case dissipates heat and withstands vibration and thermal stress of high-performance riding.
- Plug-and-Play: Standard 6-pin (4+2) green rounded male connectors for tool-free installation on most GY6 Chinese wiring harnesses.
