For those of you who think there is no lag, you aren't familiar with the 97 and prior tachs. They are INSTANT and responsive and update QUICKLY.. there is ZERO delay....<hr></blockquote>
Magnus not trying to flame you but...
Your description "instant, quick w/no delay" does describe my 98's (stock) tach fairly good. Maybe it is just certain cars.
My cars tach is almost as responsive as my motorcylcle's.--Traded In--<br />1998 Navy Blue Metallic Camaro (RS)<br />3.8L V6 w/4L60E Auto<br />Sport Appearance Package<br />T-Tops - Loaded<br />_ _ _ _ __________________ _ _ _ _ <br /><br />--New--<br />2003 Victory Red S10 Xtreme w/Silver Stripes<br />2.2 L4 w/MW2 5 Speed Manual<br />LS PackageComment

years before 98 ARE as fast as your motorcycles.
If your car isn't as fast as your cycles, then it isn't instant.Keith - Chicago<br /><a href=\"http://www.hptuners.com\" target=\"_blank\">HP Tuners - PCM Reprogramming</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.dxsoftware.com/magnus/\" target=\"_blank\">97 Firebird V6 to LS1 swap</a><br /><b>V8 9.967@132.78</b> 1.322 60\' NA Heads/Cam<br /><b>V8 10.295@128.48</b> 1.363 60\' NA Cam Only<br /><b>V8 10.987@119.31</b> 1.422 60\' NA Stock Internals<br /><b>V6 13.674@98.22</b> NA<br /><b>V6 12.394@104.91</b> N20 100HPComment

he's saying his 98 is as fast, keith.
i'm willing to surmise it's a 99+ problem.
ETC, and different temp gauges, lead me to believe this.2011 Camaro LS 6M, in black.Comment

its a 98+ issue. I know this.
Some tachs may be faster than others 98+, but 99% of them aren't as instantly responsive like the pre 98's.
the cluster changes COMPLETELY in 98. In 99 they change the way the coolant temp gauge operates, and the fuel gauge.Keith - Chicago<br /><a href=\"http://www.hptuners.com\" target=\"_blank\">HP Tuners - PCM Reprogramming</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.dxsoftware.com/magnus/\" target=\"_blank\">97 Firebird V6 to LS1 swap</a><br /><b>V8 9.967@132.78</b> 1.322 60\' NA Heads/Cam<br /><b>V8 10.295@128.48</b> 1.363 60\' NA Cam Only<br /><b>V8 10.987@119.31</b> 1.422 60\' NA Stock Internals<br /><b>V6 13.674@98.22</b> NA<br /><b>V6 12.394@104.91</b> N20 100HPComment

THanks magnus, I wasnt sure because they are the same SHAPE at least. The coolant gauge range is different yeah.<hr></blockquote>
Why not just "transplant" the tach from a 97 and put it in your 02 cluster? I'm sure it would be a little work, but if the layout is basically the same, I don't see why you can't?<a href=\"http://pics.projectpredator.com/thumbnails.php?album=16\" target=\"_blank\">2003 Zinc Yellow Mustang GT</a> 1 of 701<br />ET : TBD<br />But our shenanigans are cheeky and fun!

your tach will be off, your coolant temp gauge won't work and neither will your fuel level gauge.Keith - Chicago<br /><a href=\"http://www.hptuners.com\" target=\"_blank\">HP Tuners - PCM Reprogramming</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.dxsoftware.com/magnus/\" target=\"_blank\">97 Firebird V6 to LS1 swap</a><br /><b>V8 9.967@132.78</b> 1.322 60\' NA Heads/Cam<br /><b>V8 10.295@128.48</b> 1.363 60\' NA Cam Only<br /><b>V8 10.987@119.31</b> 1.422 60\' NA Stock Internals<br /><b>V6 13.674@98.22</b> NA<br /><b>V6 12.394@104.91</b> N20 100HPComment

for camaros anyway, it CHANGED IN 972011 Camaro LS 6M, in black.Comment

97 was the change from analong to dig odo.
the gauge hardware remained mostly the same.
We're talking elecronics in the actual cluster here. That's where the problem lies.Keith - Chicago<br /><a href=\"http://www.hptuners.com\" target=\"_blank\">HP Tuners - PCM Reprogramming</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.dxsoftware.com/magnus/\" target=\"_blank\">97 Firebird V6 to LS1 swap</a><br /><b>V8 9.967@132.78</b> 1.322 60\' NA Heads/Cam<br /><b>V8 10.295@128.48</b> 1.363 60\' NA Cam Only<br /><b>V8 10.987@119.31</b> 1.422 60\' NA Stock Internals<br /><b>V6 13.674@98.22</b> NA<br /><b>V6 12.394@104.91</b> N20 100HPComment

Straight TB's... i think they are no difference in HP, but we have drive by wire wihch is cool. I love drive by wire, not a big fan of ETC.
I think the SLP CAI for the 97 style is better than the lid setup. The lid setup has a few bottlenecks that the SLP CAI doesn't have.Keith - Chicago<br /><a href=\"http://www.hptuners.com\" target=\"_blank\">HP Tuners - PCM Reprogramming</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.dxsoftware.com/magnus/\" target=\"_blank\">97 Firebird V6 to LS1 swap</a><br /><b>V8 9.967@132.78</b> 1.322 60\' NA Heads/Cam<br /><b>V8 10.295@128.48</b> 1.363 60\' NA Cam Only<br /><b>V8 10.987@119.31</b> 1.422 60\' NA Stock Internals<br /><b>V6 13.674@98.22</b> NA<br /><b>V6 12.394@104.91</b> N20 100HPComment
