Is the Zeeltronic worth it?

[Strike78]

Hello everyone!
I need to replace my cdi and was wondering if the zeeltronic is worth the 300€ or is there anywhere i cant get it for cheaper.
Thanks!

I love mine, I have about 5 Zeeltronic ignition systems and just this week bought another one.

I'd say, bang for buck, the Zeeltronic made the single biggest impact on my DTRE, over exhaust/Porting/carb the ignition system made the biggest jump in performance.

@Strike78 It certainly is! If you have an early DTR with the 3NC loom/CDI and 3-wire servo, by running a Zeeltronic and a 5-wire servo (more easily available) it's possible to install it without making any changes to your stock wiring loom. You can then keep the 3NC CDI and 3-wire servo and if you sell the bike or just want to return it to stock for any reason, it's just plug and play.

I'd just get it directly from Zeeltronic, Borut is very helpful and I ended up with quite a papertrail of emails after buying, he appeared genuinely interested in helping me gain a good understanding of ignition and powervalve maps (it's a lot more tunable if you run a 5-wire servo).

Thank you guys for the help!
I’m going to get one, especially because there’s a plug-and-play option compatible with my DTX125. That makes the whole process much easier and avoids having to modify the wiring system.

I’m also running a full Firebox exhaust on the bike, so I was wondering if there’s any specific map/setup that I should get, or if I should just use the one that comes pre-installed. I don’t really know annything about CDI tuning, so any advice would be appreciated.
