Hey guys just curious if anyone knows if the original tacho ca be piggy backed from to install a maonster tacho? i was curious if anyone has done this in a TE or and 3rd gen magna and is it hard?

Why bother?? Monster Tacho's are so 90's
Just get a Shift light kit installed into your factory Dash.. Would look far better..

i know your askin for help n all but seriously mate the standard tacho is big enough!

and as for shift lights, unless its in a 9sec drag car..........get to know your car better,it'll tell you when its time to shift and it'll save you lookin like a tryhard

"i neva narked on nobody!" :thumbsup:

its time to shift when it wont rev any harder just hold ya foot on carpet computer will tell you when to change

i did'nt think magnas went fast enough to put a monster tacho in

on your ignition coil you can piggy back off that..i did it with mine...

peel back the black tape.there is a white wire that is thicker than the others...thats the one that sends the signal.

then all you have to do it get active and earth

i am also looking to wire in a tacho...., jared, what engine are you talking about, 2.6L, 3.0L or the 3.5L?, my coil is built into the distributer and has around 6 wires coming out of it, is this what you are talking about?

u can splice into the crank angle sensor wire which from memory is a blue wire with a redline (dont quote me though), this will give the rpm signal only

Open the bonnet and look to the left hand side of the plenum, u should see a black connector box which is bolted to it, this is where the wire is located and runs into the car to the ecu

why do u need another tacho.....you got a perfectly good one in there at the moment
