SXR Timing advance???

just got a flywheel for my ski and am kicking the idea of installing a timing advance plate(r&d) just wanted to see if anyone had any feedback on the plate. people are telling me to put the plug in on, but whats the difference, if any?
 
I do not have any experience with the advance plate. On the other hand if you take your temp sensor and splice it together it will advance your timing 6 degrees. I did this to my ski and noticed a difference. I think you need to run a higher octane gas with the timing advance. It will give you some low end punch for FREE!

I would use the plate over the jumper regardless. With the plate your guaranteed 6 degree's +/- (Depending on your plate), with the jumper it is kinda a crap shoot.
 
i got a lightend fkywheek from #zero, works great. i got the r&d advance plate but after reading the instructions i got a little confused. the producted was listed for a 750/800. i know there is a difference in the elctrical systems from 2003 to 2004 and up. the instructions said it could be used on 2004 systems but at the end gave another product # specifically for the 2004 an up models. so i got confused ...can i use this plate or not. the pick up point seem to be similar and 6 degrees should be six degrees right?

I dont know where some of you guys get that jumping the sensor will be different from one ski to another. If you jumper out the sensor circuit, the DIGITAL CDI changes the advance to the full 6° that it is capable of. not 4° or 5° or 7°, but 6°, period. Its programmed into the cdi and depends on the resistance of the circuit. Lower the resistance to zero by closing (jumping, shorting) the circuit, the CDI goes to 6° advance.

I have run both the plate and jumper for 6 years on my 2004 stock sxr, as well as my brothers ski, sisters ski, and all of my buddies. I recommend both. No problems at all, 87 octane.

I don't think 03 electronics have a temp sensor to jump. My Vilder Flywheel advances my timing 4 degrees already.

DJ how do u like the vilder. I had it on my motor a couple years ago and didnt notice a big increase.

Cheapest power on a kawi motor (after factory pipe) is to re-cut the head and get squish cut for 93 octane. Run the msd enhancer with timing advance plate and the retard module.
