Start at the CDI B4 you spend the money. Make sure it's plug and play. My Molssi CDI wasn't and I Don't splice important wires.

So Malossi says to use a Force Master with the big bore kit, but the Liberty sent to the US isn't compatible with the Force Master they recommend for that year in Italy. I sent three different Forcemasters to one dealership, that has installed a lot of Malossi kits with forcemaster to Vespa Primavera and Sprints since they came out, to see if they could make them work with the new Liberty 150 iGet. They couldn't. I haven't reached out to our friends in San Diego to see if they'd be amenable to receiving the big box of Forcemasters that might work and having a go at it.
The bike does start and run without the forcemaster, and with the lambda emulator, you will get a bit more fuel at idle. Also, by unplugging the battery for a long time, you will cause the ECU to reprogram itself when you start it up with the big bore kit.
The issue that might arise from not using something akin to the Forcemaster is that the ECU in Piaggio scooters takes in information from the O2 sniffer up to 6000 rpms. And after that, it only does what it's programed to do. So if you're running the bike flat out for miles, you might be running it too lean for too long. I would definitely check the spark plug after a long run like that, and see if the bike is running lean, or okay.
