Step #1 is the ignition. Looking for more anywhere else at this time will still be being held back from its potential by the ignition.

The cr ignition is a HUGE upgrade!!! Well worth the money. Some companies claim to rewind the stator for lights or you will have to go with a battery setup

I got a cr ignition to try on mine as well TRXDAN, I also do some night duning so keeping the headlight was a necessity. Ill be going with the battery set up that Grande mentioned earlier. Led light bars dont draw as much juice as the halogen setups. With a good battery I should be able to get a few nights of riding on one charge. Ive heard that the rewound stators are not very reliable (dont know to the validity of that.) Due to the oilfield picking back up I havent had a whole lot of free time to install the cr and hook the light bar directly to the battery. Ill let you know how it goes, should be getting to it pretty quick.    Also, this is just my experience, my friend and I had more problems than good messing with the timing on a factory trx ignition. May work for others, but our setups didnt like it.

Do you have timing adjust plate, give it 4-6 degrees of timing,have it reported, custom cut dome .. Race gas with proper compression

no plate yet i will be ordering soon.  as far as custom dome yes. unsure of cc's but it cannot run on pump gas i built it for only race gas.

is this an older esr cylinder or a newer one... made within the past 2 years? reason i ask is the older style esr cylinders that eddie did for stroker cranks did not have the port timing adjusted correctly and can tend to be a bit down on power.

cylinder was bought in 2013. it runs very hard it runs side by side with 4 mil drag ported banshees. i have videos on youtube of it too....but to me the bike pulls hard on bottom end but seems to not rev out and pull in higher rpm. almost feels like a cr500.

well being a drag port and a drag pipe, it should be quite the opposite........  there may be more to the problem then just "needing more power"

i bought this motor from a guy it had low hours but he could not get it to run properly. when i got it, it would detonate a lot and blew quit a few head o rings before it finally had a light seizure and thats when i rebuilt it. but since then its ran great no more detonation/pinging or blowing orings.

Is the TRX 11 pipe a center mount or out of frame silencer?  

Are you using it for 300 ft drags only or other types of riding where you are at wide open throttle for more that 5 seconds at a time?

center mount With silencer. Its a hill shooter its about a 5 second run. Start from first and end up in high 4th at the end of the hill.
