just a silly question, why would anybody need a second tach when the stock one works just fine?

man i have been installing a shiftlight for about a month now. I got everything hooked up except the wire to get an RPM reading. The dealership told me that I cant tap in to the ECU Because i wouldnt get the right reading. They told me i would have totap in to the coil pack. hetold me it was the Brown wire coming out of the #4 cyl. I taped into it and it didnt work im not sure if i got a bad connection or what i havent had time to look at it.

Yeah....I was wondering those two same questions before!
1. If ya already have one why?
2. If your gonna get one why there?? kinda defeats the purpose...you have to take your eyes off the road to see your rpm??

Well, using a big tach is easier when racing, but only if it's up in your field of vision while looking where you're driving... Anyways, not sure which wire it is, anybody have a service manual? I haven't picked one up yet.

You can buy a shiftlight for that purpose, id rather have a shift light attatched up my steering column like the WRX has its boost guage there.. That is a pretty stupid spot for it, doesnt it get into the way when shifting into 1st 3rd and 5th?

unless you actually race your car, it's money better spent elsewhere anyways...
