V-Thunder by Comp Computer Ignition Controller

I use the V-Thunder by Comp Computer Ignition Controller with Profire software.

I've got my v-twin done to the edge of stage 2, it'd be stage 3 except it's not stroked. I have all the goodies though. I can go like hell and have yet to be beat by an 88inch! I attribute it to the Pro Fire ignition being so tunable. I can plug the bike into a computer and see what's happening in real time. It's a nice toy that is very functional.

Here's a screen shot of the software. The ignition hooks up to the computer and you can program and monitor the ignition in real time.

Do they only make HD ignition controllers?...or do they have them for all flavors of 2 wheelers? That would be trick on my GSXR :D

Give them a look see, it does appear to be v-twin only... http://www.powerandperformancenews.com/store/merchant.mvc?Store_Code=VT

I just dragged this up cause it has a cool pic.

Very Nice!! I'll have to see what they might be able to do for my Shovelhead ;)

I can't say enough about this ignition. It's so tunable you can get it just right. It's alot more then most want, but the results are damn good for an upgrade.

I run mine in single fire mode. Dual Coil.

Hmmm....not sure if they offer one for my bike, closest thing would prolly be the VTI2000A :think:

Nice screen shot, once you static time the unit can you adjust timing indefinately? Does it have a setting for kickstart only (fires every rev instead of skipping like a factory unit)? I am currently running Hi 4 by crane on my 89" stroker and I like it, but for my next bike I am thinking this may be the way to go. Thanks for any help.

Under startup conditions the ignotion simulates "points ignition" which produces a highly accurate but retarded spark timing.

That's is from the manual and you can program the RPM range where that is in affect, above say 200 RPM and below 500 RPM.

As you mentioned, you can set the static timing and then do anything ya want after that via computer live in real time each cylinder independant.

The new model is probably way better.

Sounds great so far, will definately look into it if my current fails or as I need another one. I failed to ask.........is the software included in the price? Cranes PC adjustable requires another $200 bucks for software I believe.

Software seems to be a free download, ya can get it and try it I think.

This is sounding better and better all the time. Thanks. I like the forum BTW.

OK, just received an email from comp cams, they have discontinued the hyperfire ignition module. So I guess I won't be checking it out.

Did they even suggest soemthing? Damn, the one I have is the much older model, but I love it. I can't see a reason to stop making it as a newer model.

Just spoke to the manufacturer. They said they are behind on production, but not eliminating the product.

It is however targeted at 80 inch bikes, not the new twin cam bikes.

I was less than impressed with their actual response to my several questions. (this is the entire response)
"We have duiscontinued the Hyperfyre."

That's it. I was a bit surprised that they didn't say "Thanks for asking", but I won't rule them out completely just yet, I had heard good things about them.

I have to admit, they were not even trying for me either. I had to pull teeth to get what I got. I even told them I have an audiance of about 10K people per month interested.

Go figure. I love mine. But if they are gone, Oh well I guess.
