No, I'm pretty sure that electronics come with the territory. Every one I have experience with involves at least a sensor or two.

hmmm, so almost undoubtably you would have to add a larger capacity battery and perhaps modify the wiring harness huh?

It may be possible, but I havent seen it. Depending on the setup, you may be able to get away with your stock battery. But, with electronics comes wiring.

Actually the prospect of doubling my raptors output without tearing the jug apart is pretty enticing. Turbos are a little expensive, but they are an option.

there is a crf conversion that sparks built that is pretty much king of the strip when you consider its displacement, if it were turbocharged then it would be even more amazing.
