how the heck do I derestrict this? I haven't seen anything about a 4 wire unit. Or is this the kind I need to saw into tp cut the internal wire?
Very carefully! For one thing, this only works on Chinese non-fuel-injected machines (or China-built Kymcos). 2-strokes and 4-strokes have different CDIs, as do AC & DC electrical systems. So do your research (YouTube is your friend) before cutting any wires, and maybe have a spare CDI on hand in case you make a mistake.
