cdi? you get what you pay for.. i cant really say whats good and whats not cause I have not used them all.. they have programmable ones too.. there are lots to choose from..

to install.. all you do is look under the right front fender.. you will see a black box.. take it out of the boot and remove the harness.. install new cdi and there you go..
should take 5 mins to install..

Easy to do one of my first mods loved it as many do best bang for your buck, now the cdi (REV) box is best used IMO on a motor that is built and that can benefit from the added RPMS up top were the degree key works all through out the power band.If you have a stock engine id go with the sparks degree key. http://www.atvriders.com/articles/timingkey400ex.html check this out from exriders.com
