Default Bike is getting dyno tuned

I'm out at Skip's Cycles getting my bike dyno tuned. I was able to ride some yesterday and it felt smooth and the torque was there. I'm curious to see how close I tuned it myself. Hoping to see 115/115 or better. Should be done within another hour.

The dyno is more for me to see what numbers I make as it already runs pretty damn good.

Good & bad news.....

They weren't able to make any adjustments as they need to contact Zippers to get some info.

The results of a NON TUNED engine is 114 hp & 108 tq. This was measured on a SAE SuperFlow dyno. I have a dip in the hp & tq that needs corrected. The hp dip is minor but the tq dip is larger. They said that they can correct this.

Are they using a Superflow or a Dynojet?

Why do "they" have to correct it? I thought the purpose of the TMax was it corrects itself? What am I missing here ?

Alright guys....

I was posting earlier from my Blackjack phone. Give me a few minutes and I will scan the graph and upload it for you all to see.

They use a Superflow dyno. I'm not aware of which is better and why?

The TMax will self tune. I just wanted to see where I stood regarding numbers. I'm running a 98" BBK with 10:5:1 compression, a gear cam with .615/.585 liftand a 50mm SE TB. The map that I am running is for a 95" BBK with 9:7:1 comp, SE 255 camand a stock TB. Even though my map runs pretty good, it doesn't match my setup. The closer that I can get to my setup, the faster the TMax will self tune. That was what we were trying to accomplish. Unfortuneately Zipper's doesn't have any 98" maps or even maps with that high of compression.
