WOW, Just read the whole post all 4 pages. My fragile scooter mind has been shattered.
Re: TwinSpreeio! An exercise in stupidity.
Failure report.
I have blown the welds on the intake... or the exhaust.
I ripped the exhaust hanger clean off the pipe. I knew it was coming. I have been putting off re welding it because well I'm 90% lazy, 80% of the time.
I also popped a head gasket/oring, so now she sits as I wait for the replacements from europe.
I pulled a bunch of timing out of it, sitting around 15 degrees from 17 and it's quite a bit quicker. I tried to find any definitive info if my Daytona CDI boxes have a slight curve and what that would be but I can't find any info if they are just straight timing or have a curve programmed, So with some trial and error I have this. If I want even more pulled, which I am curious to try I will need to re make my timing plate that holds the pickups. Past me didn't plan well for future me.
I also have started making full exhausts, have got all the port timings, ran it thru a few calculators and will probably try to get the header sections done asap. I finished making the cylinder flanges yesterday and boy howdy they look sporty.

Most of my money is spent on scooterparts. The rest is just wasted.

Super cool, Very Nice, Best Build.
May be the most power on any build here? Elite or Spree.
