It = is > for a CDI. Is the 300V to charge the capacitor to be discharged into the ignition coil? That seems a lot of power just for the spark. How many cylinders your CDI will ignite? I once designed a CDI using a small 1 cubic cm ferrite transformer switched by a single MOSFET. I don't remember the details, but it used much less power.
