the cut down loom and coils came with the 1100w motor i brought a while ago.
I have the loom and it makes it a shit load easier to find any potential porblems with only 6 wires.
as for removing the starter it probly wont make that much difference but there are about 3 stages of gears that are run off the clutch gear. if the motor dosn't have to spin these gears over then it all counts.
I could leave the starter in, and the gears and use an external car battery to power the starter directly if i get sick of it.
but its not that hard to bump start the thing. just annoying if anything.
just ask Turbokat as he had to bump his thing about 30 times when we went drag racing.
and also - because i can.
