Default tmat ?

Installed tmat about 4 days ago took it out twice bike ran great no pop, no ping and pulled real nice. Tonight I took the bike out and noticed right away that I had what felt like dead spots at certain rpm and then it would go away and pull hard again. Maybe hard to understand but I dont know how else to explain it. I only have like 100 miles on it so far should I just put another 3-400 miles on it and see if it goes away, I know that 100 miles is not enough to let this thing do its job but has any one else had this happen? If so did it go away?

100 miles isn't enough time. I'd give it a few more miles. Depending upon how close your base map is to your build, it could take alittle or alot of time.

Things should start smoothing out around 300-400 miles. It should be pretty well dialed-in 500-1000miles... Your mileage will continue to get better over time as well....
