Does anyone have a source for someone who can make a higher reading rpm gauge for a 996tt? I would like to use the same stock set up (location, face size).

 

How many RPMs does it need to go to

 

My guess would be at least 10K

 

What's your view on Autometer? I have an pillar mounted boost gauge of thiers in my suburban which seems to work well. I'm not sure if they do what you need.

How about a GT3 or Carrera GT gauge?

 

I dont know how well a CGT one will work considering its for a V-10.

 

Tachometer

 

I don't see how the number of cylinders makes any difference in the tachometer readout. I would guess all that needs to be done is some adaptation of the C-GT sending unit to make it work properly.

Anyway, Chad, North Hollywood Speedometer does a lot of work on the older 911 gauges and I highly recommend them as a starting point at the very least.

Im just going by the last time I installed a tach (autometer) one wire read how many times a second the spark plug was energized so you had to make sure the tach was set for the right number of cylinders. Factory ones might just get input from the ecu. I am no expert.

We would like it to read 10K. We currently have a SPA digital mounted on the column wihich works abeit a bit small. The OEM one in the cluster needs to be changed, modified or ? as it will constantly be pegged.
