I've been looking into using HEI modules to replace my ignitor on my GS550. Here's the information:
Has anyone else ever done this? Can't find a lot of information on it. Seems simple enough and I've already got the parts laying around.
My next question is the ignition coils themselves. I remember a few years ago I switched to a escort EDIS coil on my Yamaha FZR600. It allowed a much wider gap on the plugs which smoothed out my idle on it. Upon researching more my stock coils are supposed to be 5ohm I believe whereas a edis coils is 0.5 - 0.7 ohms. Can an HEI module take the extra current? Anything else I'm missing that could cause this to go wrong? I was looking up hotter coils for hei ignitions and the primary side seems close but that's not a wasted spark setup. I'm pretty new to this electrical stuff so any information can help. Thanks in advance guys.
