Default Want a Tach.

I know I can swap a gauge cluster with tach into my 03 SE. I could also buy a tach. Any advantage of one over the other? I am not a racer, I just miss having a tach. Thanks.

I would say, if all you want is a tach...just go the swap out cluster way...cheap, and only takes about 30 minutes tops, even if you are only semi-mechanical...


...Go the aftermarket if you have yer heart set on it, but be pepared for more work...adapters...and posting 3 or 4 times here saying 'what wire was that?, ...Help!, how come my aftermarket tach don't work?...etc, etc.....

I will probably go with the cluster. I like the white gauges as a added bonus. Looks like it will be cheaper too. Thanks for the responses.

No it actually adds 30 WHP. The boost gauge for a 2.0 liter stock engine alone adds like 40 WHP.

I went the aftermarket sunpro ones... works out well for me... no need for adaptor if you get one that works with 2 cylinder... I did this because i had my reverglow overlay for my guage already and also I wanted to keep my mileage accurate... i'm running 75,000 miles now... and i can't find a used cluster that's about the same mileage
