degree key?

[blasta13]

i saw in a vitos add in dirtwheels that they degree key will give you 2.5 hp, and its only $20. is it worth buying? does it really give u that much power? and how do u install it?

[mueller77]

i've heard it doesnt work that well but thats just what i've heard but i guess for 20 bucks try it and let me know

[blasta13]

i might try it. i only got $90 left from christmas, and im spending like $60 of it on 2 50 round clips for my 10/22. it awesome ever since that assault weapons ban has been repealed lol

but, if i no it makes a difference, ill rty it.

from everyone i heard that has done timing increases "same as key" it adds a good punch to the bike.

[MIKEMOKAS]

you can move the stock one 4 degrees for free ;D

i have a vitos degree key it increase timing and you can actually feel a good increase in power

[blasta13]

how did u put it in? my moms boy friend says that u have to remove the stator cover and its there somewhere. do u just turn something, or do u put it in and it stays there, replacing an old one?

got this from 42F67N off of blasterhq give him credit.



This mod will advance the timing 4 degrees and costs nothing
To do the job properly you will need...
A flywheel puller, torque wrench and flywheel holder.


#1 Unplug the connections for the stator wires behind the frame tube next to the CARB.

#2 Remove the stator cover

#3 Remove the flywheel and keyway.

#4 Mark the original stator position with a scribe as in the pic (the red line marks the stock timing location)




#5 Next remove the stator plate by removing the two mounting bolts

#6 using a scribe measure and scribe a line 3mm to the left of the mounting hole location. This will give you a 4 degree timing advance.




#7 Using a round file or a grinding bit in a dremal tool widen the mounting holes 3mm to the line you just made.



#8 reinstall the stator plate and measure the marks you made in step #4 and make sure the plate can now be turned 3mm.



If you wish you can slot the stator both to the left and right so it's possible to retard the timing for custom

[MIKEMOKAS]

lol thats where i got my info that i posted earlier

[blasta13]

i probably just get the degree key instead of doing that.

[waltnuts42]

i have heard quite a few people saying that they keys shear fairly easy. so i wouldnt take the chance.

[ToTech81]

yea,i would just slot the stator....the degree keys arent very reliable,not to mention the fact that it probibly only cost vitos 12 cents to make it...

[blasta13]

lol it costs 12 cents to make it and they sell it for $20, braces cost like $1 to make and they sell them for like $2000 lmao
