Default TC88a

Just installed the TC88a ignition module. Took all of 5 minutes from removing the old one and installing the new one. Just two nuts to remove and the cable that plugs in. A few things I have noticed after the first ride with installed:

1. Bike needs much less enricher to start and needs it left on a much shorter period of time.
2. Bike seems to shift smoother at all rmp's and in all gears. After releasing clutch power is right there. I find myself shifting now at much higher speeds because it feels so much smoother.
3. Bike idles better and sounds better at idle.
4. Power is smoother at all rmp's as well. Seems to be easier to keep in low rpm's like when stuck in traffic and doing 85 to 90 on the freeway has ever seemed so smooth.

I did experience a little pingin when set to 3 and 5, don't have the PC link cable yet, after a long hard ride, hitting a light and then taking off again. Which dial should I decrease to remedy this?

Once I've secured the PC link cable and loaded one of Turbota's custom maps I expect even better results. Keep your eyes on ebay, I got mine brand new for less than $80 shipped.
