    06 Tachometer issues..??

    Weird problem, as of late the tach has been way off and not consistant.. Sometimes way low, sometimes way high, sometimes right on.. Seemed like loose needle, because when real high I can peg it against boost guage and make it back off some the amount it slips I suppose... But it seems...

    Taking to track tomorrow

    Went well if anyone interested, best run was 14.1 @ 93 MPH with a 1.87 60ft.. Leaving anywhere over 1800 RPM yielded a lot of tire spin, yes I was launching in 4WD.. I probably could have aired down 20 lbs from 75 psi to 55 or so and done better.. But happy with that, now I can go back...

    SES and no power/boost? Restarted and OK.

    Thank for the Help, sounds like my assumption is probably correct.. DaveBen: I am getting an SCT scanner and would have scanned if I had at this time, just happened last night and seeing what was most likely.. Trailey97: Thanks! It was not so easy, I initally bought an 06 with "57,000"...
