I have a 2002 Civic Dx 4dr (ES body style) that does not have a factory tachometer. I had an aftermarket one installed and am not sure what to set the redline at. I assume on the D17A1 1.7L its redline is no higher than 6500rpm but I really don't know. Can anyone shed some light on this?

^^^^ ?????

its 6800...

 

the 6100 is just where the engine makes its max HP.

6800 is the stock redline for a d17a1
