it is suppose to give the spark more spark like a performance stator or something, they are a waste of money, ask anyone....all they are is like a coil of wires in the plastic thing, BIG waste of money...

oh, and by the way...look through the pages of the topics, this question has been asked and answered at least 3 times

I think you are talking about Answer's "Roost Boost" ignition booster. I dont think they sell those new anymore. They never did much more than lighten a persons wallet. So I guess yes, the power to weight ratio improves a bit. I have had friends install them years ago and never noticed any difference. Same performance and spark plug life. I talked with an ex-national pro racer by the name of Boyd Calvert and he said he had tested it on his race bike and noticed no difference in power or lap times.
