Hi Guys

Has anyone hooked up their Standard Mx83 Dash Tacho to the MicroTech ??

I have an LTX12s wired into my Mx83 with 1JZ

ATM my dash isnt hooked up and I've heard its not so easy

Has anyone made it work ??

Does the LTX12s have a tacho output?
If it does, wire it up to the tacho.

If it doesn't, you'll probably need to do one of those diode arrangements, from the coil -ve wire.

I think that the Ltx12s has a Tacho in and out Correct me if Im wrong

Is it that simple ??

If it has a tacho out, wire it up and see if it works.
If it doesn't, you may need a tacho booster.

Have a search through the Microtech Forums, see if there is any help there.

Im having a look now Haha

Again correct me if im wrong, According to the MicroTech website, They just have a Tacho output so maybe it is just a matter of hooking it up (famous last words)

What about resistors etc ??

Nothing is needed if it works, but I'm not sure if the output on the Microtech, it may need a booster. In which case, have a search for the tacho booster thread, and build your own for $2.

i'm running a microtech lt10s on a 7mgte in an mx83. ended up using a tach booster to get mine working.

I found the Tacho Booster thread

http://www.toymods.net/forums/showthread.php?t=22574

I roughly know how this thing works

Has anyone else had success with Mx83 and Microtech ??

Yes you'll need a booster to get the tacho working. You can build your own or go buy one. MSD part number is 8920.
