I'm assuming your talking about having a new motor, right?

You have to get the standalone setup for a break-in period, then once its properly broke in, take it to a dyno and then tune it for the full RPM range.

He doesnt mean that the acutal Standalone is going through a break in period. Just have the Standalone roughly tuned just enough to get you by until you've broken in your motor. Ie. If possible, Use the Base maps

there isn't, but the engine needs to be broken in. therefore you can't realy tune it untill the engine is broken in. just get it to run as best as you can untill you reach enough km. then go tune it on a dyno.
