Hello,
I finally got my TinyTach and installed it today. Pretty cool little unit, about 1.2" tall and 2.0" wide. Transducer fits my newly cad plated injector line like a charm! Got it all wired up and went out for a drive, nice, below 1000RPM, readout shows RPM to the rev, above 1000RPM the tach shows RPMs to the nearest 10 RPMs. It has timers and max RPM developed in the menu. I will post a flick tomorrow when it's lighter and the camera will autofocus. Oh yea, the readout has an internal backlight, its a soft green, nice!
I was most curious as to how the boost vs RPMs would chart out. At 1000RPMs the boost is 5psi, At 1400PSI-10psi, 1900RPM-15psi, and 2300-18+psi. All of these readings were with the throttle wide open and an uphill load on the engine. I also found out that the fastest I spin the motor is 2800RPMs. I will post freeway numbers when I get to a freeway. I think this turbo setup is vindicated, I am totally happy and/or satisfied!
