Nowhere was there a correlation between one cdi unit firing two plugs and two cdi units firing two plugs. There is no definitive correlation of how much HP would be lost if he was to use only one cdi unit for firing dual plugs. That test was never carried out on the dyno. There was only a statement made that there would be a slight loss of power using one cdi unit to fire dual plugs. How much is a slight loss, 2-5 Hp or more nobody knows as this was never determined in the testing.

The point I was trying to make, use from Kent's dyno experience, is that there is NO HARM to the engine if one of the 2 plugs NEVER fires. If the use of a single CDI to drive 2 coils results in the "2nd" plug often not firing the result would likely not be notable...except for the loss of HP, <10%, and slightly higher emissions detrimental to our atmosphere.
