What am I missing here? Your car has one of the best Tachs made and you want to change?? Is this just for bling bling?

There is a Tach test terminal on the left inner fender, in front of the brake master cylinder. It's in a 2 pin connector shell, with 1 wire in it. I've used it for a RPM signal for a Autometer shift light.
