RE: can I split a ignition cuttoff?

Yes you can do that. The typical CDI units draw about 1 ampere maximum (more like 650ma), so since the RCexl ignition kill switch is designed to handle several amps, it won't be a problem. The RCexl switch uses a 20V,16 Amp, MOS-FET (IRF7465) on its output. You could even do it with four engines too.
