    DYNA S i would say has to be the most popular

        I may have touched on this, reading old posts, but is the coil relay mod the one that disables the spark at start up ,until the engine has a second or 2 to crank at full speed?

          no, this particular mod is assuring you get full battery voltage at the coils,all the time
