I am talking about the explanation given to you by the shop guy. Engine does not create enough power to run rpm meter so install a FFE.

MY car idles at 800 RPM, and peaks at 4000 on the tacho, will try the ECM thingy soon, lets see what happens. But my gut feeling is that crap gear box on the Endura Ikon is spoiling the revvs.

I finally found a AutoGuage Tachometer 3.5 inch with color changing backlight + the Shift Light, exactly the same as the Ractive but just that the Autoguage didnt have the Smoked glass like the Ractive.
The intresting Part is that it had a selector for 2 - 3 - 4 - 6 Cylinder, So all my hopes are going up. Gonna test it on if it works. Will write back.

Hey Bugboy180,

I'm from Pune too. I have a tacho, and want to install it, since many days. I'm having a santro Elx (zing) but nobody is technically sound enough to fit a tacho..

Please please let me know if you know anybody in Pune who can do this job. ! Really appreciate if anybody would let me know. ! thanks..
