RE: Opensource CDI ignition
Happymcc,
If you are unable or unsure of how to program the PIC chip, there is lots of help available. Many electronics hobbyists will be able to do it for you. Almost certainly, high schools and local colleges also have the ability. It should cost nothing and takes almost no time to do, once you have the code in electronic format.
Check around. If you strike out, I would be happy to do it for you using the "standard" code.
