I want to upgrade my ignition on my Superjet this year and I don't know what to do. I am building an 84mm 4mm stroker, however it's not done yet so I may be using this ignition with my 62T 760 motor. Last year I ran an enhancer with a lightened 62T flywheel with no problems at all.
Over the winter I bought another Enhancer and a Riva aluminum flywheel. After doing a bit of reading about the Riva/Rad aluminum flywheels, I don't know if I want to run one. It should be reliable but the timing will be all over the place, from what I have read. Also it doesn't retard the advance enough at high RPM. So now I am thinking about buying an Advent, Inferno, Vilder with Vilder flywheel, or a MSD total loss.
I really would like having a light flywheel so that rules out the Advent. I also had a bad experience with an old Advent a few years ago. The Infreno will work with the aluminum flywheel but will take a bit to set up, and I would have to buy the programmer separately. MDS TL work well when they work, however they are very expensive new and used ones are hard to find these days. I also would like a charging system.
This leaves me with the Vilder with the Vilder aluminum flywheel. It does everything you want an ignition to do. It's programmable, light flywheel, it charges, and you can choose between two curves on the fly. However the Vilder is expensive and has no customer support. When it quits, you throw it away.
Any feedback on the Vilder system will be appreciated. There is a lot of information available here about the other systems but it is winter now and all opinions will be appreciated.
