* Hit align to your point of interest
 
* Immediately after hit the cloak
Do these things in this order after jumping through a stargate or wormhole.  Although you can do MWD then cloak (or do both at once), it is not recommended as having your MWD active before your cloak is a bad idea due to the signature radius bloom and the likelihood of spending more time uncloaked.
* Immediately after you hit cloak hit your MWD ''(this '''does''' work, you can activate non-offensive modules for 5 seconds after you activate a cloaking device).''
# Hit align to your point of interest
* When your MWD cycle is about 90% complete you drop cloak and spam warp to your point of interest.  
# Immediately after hit the cloak
# Immediately after you hit cloak hit your MWD ''(this '''does''' work, you can activate non-offensive modules for 5 seconds after you activate a cloaking device).''
# When your MWD cycle is about 90-95% complete, deactivate your cloak and spam warp to your point of interest.
# The MWD will deactivate automatically, and when it does you will instantly enter warp.


Because the MWD boosts your (cloaked) speed by 500% for one cycle while you are cloaked you will end up at right around warp speed when you deactivate the cloak (right before the MWD cycle is complete.)  Since you hit align before the cloak you will be aligned and at warp speed when the cloak drops.  This equals near insta-warp.  With practice, you can be uncloaked for literally less than a second total on a gate.  Practice in high-sec and you will find this is actually pretty easy and effective.
