tachs arent always 100% accurate, just like speedometers.

my itr shows 9000 when it tachs out.....does that mean i have a 9000 rpm redline?



nope, mines at 8500....and on the vafc, its more accurate and can see the difference. shit at idle the tach is about 100-200 rpms faster than the vafc.

for all the people asking the why does my tach say xxx rpm but I only tach out at xxx... honda tachs are notorious for being inaccurate, they are as much as 400 RPM off by the topend, Mine is approx 100-150 off by 4krpm

I think so, but Honda was the first to have it in production engines. Since 1989. The rest are followers
