2 rotors is the same as a 4 cylinder engine so you should use that set-up. for most aftermarket applications, they use this math equation for rotary engines...

number of rotors x 2 = amount of cylinders

It's only 3.9"?

I love the stock tach. It's freaking huge already and centered in the console. None of this small tach/big speedo crap.

So you want two tachs both about the same size that'll both show you the same thing, one of which will make your car a target for thieves, just because its free. Cool...

Connect the signal wire to the blue/yellow wire hanging out of the trailing coil harness. It has a bullet connector. Set the tach to 4-cyl.
