I have read about the better CDI's and the adjustable CDI's over on My China Moto. They are nothing more than a CDI that is programmed with a different timing curve, or in the case of the adjustable one, it has a few selectable curves. These do make a difference on high-performance bikes. I have run them on my Japanese bikes. On the low powered low-performance China bikes, I doubt you'll notice much of a difference.I've never tried tho, on a China bike. YMMV

I don't know. I've never seen that before. X may denote side by side or UTV. I see x in a few of the model names on those.

I tried a Posh brand "performance" CDI on my Lifan 200 with poor results. Timing at idle was too advanced to idle below 2500 RPM and pre-ignition occurred at higher RPMs. Went back to stock after one short test ride.

the "performance cdi that I have runs good on 93 octane (rm/2 method) with a bottle of octane boost... anything less than that and it runs piss poor...

I found out what an X22 is. It's a 125cc super pocket bike, the Venom X22.
