FTSPARK-6 GEN3 MAX2000

FEATURES

2000mJ Per Channel — Extreme CDI Ignition Energy

At the core of the FTSPARK GEN3 MAX2000 is a completely redesigned ignition architecture developed to push the limits CDI ignition performance:

• Up to 2000mJ of ignition energy per channel — extremely high spark intensity for engines operating under extreme cylinder pressure 
• 475–500V primary coil voltage, helping prevent misfires in high boost and high compression applications 
• Up to 175A primary coil current when paired with the FuelTech Racing CDI Coil designed specifically for FTSPARK systems 
• Strong spark current and reliable ignition performance even when operating at reduced ignition energy levels down to 150mJ 
• Increased spark current and extended spark duration for improved combustion stability across a wide range of engine conditions 

Multispark Mode — Ignite the Most Difficult Mixtures 

The new Multispark mode expands the operating envelope beyond traditional CDI ignition systems:

• Programable multispark configuration: fire a series of sparks rather than a single spark per combustion cycle
• Enables stable ignition of extremely rich air/fuel mixtures — ideal for high boost, high compression, alcohol, and nitromethane applications
• Provides ignition performance comparable to high-energy inductive systems when operating with lean mixtures
• Ensures consistent combustion from idle conditions through maximum cylinder pressure

Programmable Energy & Advanced CANBUS Integration

The FTSPARK GEN3 MAX2000 offers extensive integration flexibility for professional engine builders and calibrators: 

• Programmable ignition energy via CAN communication or dedicated energy level adjustment input — enabling control of ignition power
• Advanced per-channel diagnostics via CANBUS for real-time system monitoring and fault detection
• CAN communication with the full FuelTech ECU lineup — ignition channel data can be logged directly through the FuelTech datalogger
• Single-wire serial bus (multiplexed trigger input) — all ignition channels triggered from a single ECU output, simplifying wiring and freeing ECU resources for additional strategies 
• Compatible with a wide range of motorsport ECUs through motorsport-standard ignition trigger input architecture 

4, 6, or 8 Independent Ignition Channels

The FTSPARK GEN3 MAX2000 supports 4, 6, or 8 fully independent ignition channels, covering:

• Multi-cylinder piston engines up to 8 cylinders
• Rotary engines with up to 4 rotors – 3 and 4 rotors require 2 x FTSPARK-4

Built for the Most Extreme Racing Conditions 

Every design decision in the GEN3 MAX2000 prioritizes durability and long-term reliability under race conditions: 

• Reinforced internal construction for improved resistance to vibration, impact, and extreme G-forces
• High-quality automotive-grade connectors for dependable electrical connections in harsh motorsport environments
• Advanced thermal design with increased heat dissipation capacity and improved heat exchange for lower operating temperatures and extended duty cycles 

Engineered for drag racing, rally, off-road, and endurance applications where ignition performance and reliability are critical. 

Direct Drop-In Upgrade from FTSPARK GEN2

Upgrading from GEN2 is as straightforward. GEN3 MAX2000 maintains:

• Identical pinout — no rewiring required
• Same mounting points — direct mechanical replacement

Full GEN3 MAX2000 performance gains are available as a direct swap, keeping installation time and downtime to a minimum.
