Because of the advanced timing at idle, compared to stock, the idle was a bit faster & smoother. But this put the idle speed very close to clutch engagement which could make it more difficult to put the buggy in reverse, cause it to creep forward, etc.
Clutch engagement seems to be moving target once you start changing variator weights and clutch springs, so I wouldn't tie spark advance to this. It would be a better measure if we knew what engine RPM the stock CDIs shifted their timing (3000 RPM). People could then tune their CVT to not engage until this threshold was passed. _________________ 08 Joyner SandViper 250
