Product Description
The Digital Firestorm Ignition/Nitrous Control System offers the latest digital technology to give you control over every aspect of the nitrous and ignition system in a compact design. Racers no longer need to have an ignition unit, kill unit, shift counter, timers, nitrous controller, retard controller etc. You can also retain your stock fuel injection control unit or run carbs.
Now you can download all of your run information onto a laptop computer for review and storage. You can also make all of your adjustments and changes with or without a laptop! Last minute changes while in the staging lanes are easy with the graphic display and low profile push buttons on the unit.

- Works with stock sportbike crank triggers.
- Programmable rev limiters for launch, burnout, and track
- Adjustable shift RPM and kill time per gear
- Auto shift capable with programmable 1-2 shift delay and solenoid on time
- User customized ignition curve with start retard
- Gear, launch, boost and time based ignition retard
- Fully programmable nitrous and fuel solenoid curves

- Suzuki GSXR-1000 with 8x crank trigger and 2-wire cam sensor.
- Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa with 24x-1 crank with 2-wire cam sensor (02-07)
- Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa with 24x-2 crank with 3 wire cam sensor (08+)
DFS Kit includes:
- Digital Firestorm Control Unit
- Digital Firestorm Ignitor
- Wiring Harness and Terminal Pack
- USB Flash Drive with Software
- User Manual
*Those with GS1100-1150, KZ900-1000-J or Hayabusa w/FBG Trigger Conversion will need to purchase a DFS Crank Trigger Rotor (sold seperatly).
**Those keeping the stock ECU and Fuel Injection on the bike will need a set of Dummie Coils (sold seperatly).
***We do not recommend the .5 ohm coils, damage could occur over time to the drivers in the unit.
***The GM LS coils are not recommended for the 4 magnet set ups, dyna coil with ignitor will perform much better
DFS Dataview Software V3.0 IMPORTANT - The controller MUST be updated to version 3.0.0 or above to use the listed FLASH image files. All user setup file data will be converted when opened. You may save the updated file with a new name if desired and the original file will not be altered.
New Features.
- All user setups and program settings are now located in My Documents\DFS-1000 Dataview.
- Nitrous Pulse Frequency of 40hZ. When going to higher pulse frequency be sure to set the Nitrous, Fuel, and Analog Out tables as required.
- Nitrous, Fuel, and Analog Out tables will now scale automatically when the pulse frequency is changed.
- Optional MAP Sensor to increase range of Boost timing control.
- Ability to select Launch rpm control algorithm.
- Option to either open a New Default user setup or load the last user setup file when launching program.
Controller specific data.
- The Shift Solenoid is now turned off when the engine rpm drops during the shift process. Thr duration timer is still used, however it will be cut short once a rpm drop is recognized.

Q. I see it says something about data logging input. Do I have to buy a datalogger with a 02 sensor bung for air fuel ratio to run with the firestorm? Or is the firestorm a data logger itself too and all I have to do is buy a 02 sensor bung run it to the firestorm and the firestorm will regulate my air fuel ratio?
A. The Firestorm is a data logger. It will record engine RPM, Timing, Nitrous functions, shift light activation, shift activation etc. I will also record Air/Fuel ratio if used with an air fuel ratio controller such as the AEM O2 Controller or WEGO III. The Firestorm will record this data and can be configured to shut off the nitrous system if the air/fuel ratio gets above a lean point. This is a safety feature to help keep your engine alive in the event a fuel solenoid goes bad or a mistake is made on the nitrous tune up.

Any additional items on your order that increase the package size and/or weight are not covered. Items with a fixed shipping price are calculated for shipping to the lower 48 states only.
Digital Firestorm Trouble Shooting Guide
Engine does not fire:
1) Verify firmware file is correct for the engine style, trigger style. Make sure you are using either a Firestorm rotor or a supported factory style crank trigger. You can check for supported crank triggers in the Firestorm update software. Factory style crank trigger wires may be reversed. You can try to switch them.
2) When cranking engine with starter, check to see if the Firestorm display is reading RPM.
3) Check ignition coils for spark. Remove 1 spark plug wire or pencil coil and install a spare spark plug into it. Carefully ground the spark plug to the cylinder head. Crank engine with starter and check for spark. If you have spark, proceed to Step 5. If you do not have spark, proceed to next step.
4) Check Ignition Module wiring to Firestorm and coils. Check for 12 volts at Ignition Module and coils while ignition is on and when engine is cranking. If voltage drops below 10 volts, replace battery. Proceed to next step only after verifying spark
5) Check to make sure spark plug wires are connected to correct cylinders.
6) Check ignition timing table for proper timing curve. The Firestorm system is designed to have the “base static timing” at 0 degrees TDC. Use the Ignition Timing Graph to set your ignition curve. Generally, all engines should be able to start at 10 degrees advanced and idle at 10-25 degrees advanced.
7) Check for fresh fuel from carbs or FI system.
8) If using the stock ECU for fuel control, check to make sure coil dummies (Part# EFIC-4COIL) are wired to the stock wiring harness only. Check for any FI codes from ECU that may be preventing fuel delivery.
9) Check cam timing/compression of engine for any mechanical defect. An engine only needs 3 things to run. IGNITION – OXYGEN - FUEL.
10> If you have an 8 spark plug head, each cylinder must have a plug wire from a different coil. You cannot run the spark plug wires like the Dynatek instructions show on the old Dyna ignitions. If you are using the two Black Dyna coils, each coil should have a spark plug wire going to all 4 cylinders.
If you are running 4 coils, each plug wire from each coil should go to cylinders 1 and 4 or to cylinders 2-3.

Firestorm!
This ignition has so much capability. This is best Ignition Controller. I have one on each of my bikes,... After you own one you will know what Firestorm owners are talk about.

The smart way to win.
I wanted a controller that can do everything I needed. And I did my home work this box made my life easy and less weight. After learning how to operate the setting I could fine tune the bike without any guesswork . A+ on this one.
