maybe its just me....but i dont see the point in getting an overly large tach....who needs a 5" tach? if i got an aftermarket tach id get one of those lil 3 3/4" ones or whatever size it is...also i thnk its rather ricey to put a big tach on a slow car, JMHO tho.

though for me, you'd have to change it to 10 inches, and you'd have to change inches to millimeters, and you'd have to change 10 to 5 and you'd have to change dick to poor excuse for one.

Well call me a ricer if you please but My new tach reads more accurate then my old one and I have no speedometer so I use my tach to tell how fast I'm going. And I know my car isn't fast yet but maybe someday it will be, when I get a job.
