    Default When a Regular tach just wont do.

    My latest addition to my Sambar.
    5" Tach plus 3 guages as well-
    Oil Pressure, Oil Temp and Water Temp - which I intend to locate in the
    transaxle to monitor temps internally as I feel the stock water temp gauge
    is ok.

    Wow, that is quite a tachometer for your supercharged subaru!
    Looks like something you'd see on a drag racing car.
    Very high performance.
    Good job.

    Subaru:
    How muchy?
    E-bay scoop for $40.00 US + Del to BC Canada = $ 66.43 CAD
    + $9.88 Duty to Feds at Post Office.

    shreddog:
    Not sure if they make bigger.

    Install notes for reference:

    -The wire you need to locate is at the back [obviously] located on the coil/ igniter assembley. It's the all YELLOW wire [no stripe - as there is others].

    - One of the things left to conquer is that this tach uses red & blue LED's for illumination
    and at night it's pretty hard to see the road past the Fourth of July lighting.
    As the Sambar does not have a rheostat to dim the dash lights it's full blast right now.
    Going to visit the Auto Wrecker to see what I can find in the way of a donor car to get a rheostat
    to tame the LED's.

    -When I get the other gauges hooked up I'll give some more pics/ info on that.

    Timetripper,
    That is really nice! Sure beats the "h-ll" out of the $69.95 one I got at a local parts store.
