Just wondering.. why do you need the second tachometer? Is one of them not functioning properly?? Or is it cuz there's a "cool" factor behind that?

I'm just curious. You got a perfectly good tach it seems with the new gauges. What's the point of the other one?

- i have a b16 swap..... and it redlines higher then a d16

- in order to install the gauges they needed to snap off the lil pin that the needle rests on ( as there was no hole in the gauge overlay, and making a hole in it would ruin the gauges ( liquid cryastal type thing )



but the real reason.....

is i heard that a monster tach adds 15 horsepower

is dis true?

Here you go......have fun.

Rice Calculator

Click "OPEN" when the box pops up. Then follow the instructions.

Punch in your stock HP and then add one thing at a time to see what the est. HP would be for that mod.

The 1/4 mile time thing is funny.

I would have thought that the real reason is that the monster tach was already installed when you bought the car.
