The cam will push the power curve higher for sure, but by how much is hard to say since I don't have a CG250 to work as an analog and CG125's are a different animal. If I had to guess, the peak is likely going to shift at least 1000rpm, maybe 1500.
In that case, it will move power peak from 7000 to 8000-8500, which means in a worse case scenario the bike will pull hard right into the rev limiter in the factory CDI, which is honestly not entirely a bad thing, but it would be nice to be able to stretch it to at least 9000.
I did order a couple of "performance" CDI's. One had decent reviews overall and was cheaper. No big claims on performance gains, but it lacks the rev limiter.

Also ordered one of those blue ones from an generic brand name as well. I figure they are so cheap I might as well. I can give both a try and see which one, if either, has any sort of benefit beyond the lack of a rev limiter.
