Default Where is the RPM Signal Wire???
I don't know which wire is the RPM signal wire. I have a 95 Civic EX Automatic and I'm trying to add an HKS Type 0 turbo timer but I have no idea which wire to tap. Can someone help? BTW, I tried a search before asking so no flames please.

Why are you adding a turbo timer if you don't have a turbo?

Try the blue wire behind the gauge cluster.

The one you need is under the hood, on the drivers side, above the upper strut mount, and coming out of the firewall.It is semi seperated from the rest of the wires. it has a black rubber grommet on it.

Auto rules out turbo? I had a Turbo Accord that was auto.

It was fast as nish to me, though I went through 2 motors.

To me, auto rules out performance.

I don't feel like I have control unless I can shift the thing.

To each his own.

I had total control of my Accord when I was doing speeds of excess of 147+ with an S4
