Default About 200-300rpm before you want to shift.
takes care of lazy tach syndrome and your reaction time.

Did you want to splice the ignition system or the tach itself?

Which is better and which is easier? I assume the tach gets the data from ignition, yes?

Do it behind the cluster is just fine. I have had mine there for almost 2 years.

It is for those that wish to shift at the same point without having to watch the rpms all the time.
