Usually when I'm at the track I use my shift light to give me warning, but have not been using it recently.

Driving around yesterday, (taking the car to an off road street of course... disclaimer) I gave my RPM gague a look to see how close I was to hitting redline. I've got the B18C1 swap with P72 and I believe red line is 8200k right??

Anyway I looked at it a few times before fuel cut and I noticed that the needle was going past 8500k.

So are these gauges suppose to be that far off? Advice??

 

consider yours an accurate one!

 

bwhahahahh

 

My EX gauge cluster reads 8600+ rpm whe the MSD cuts spark at 7800 rpm, which the Autometer tach displays nicely.

 

Yeah I was looking into an Autometer but the 3" tachs.

Are there any other brands of tachs out there besides Autometer??

 

Apexi makes tachs

 

yeah i also would like to know
whats a accurate tach that isnt ricey looking

 

Yes they are that far off...They are often 4-500 rpm off at high revs..
