put simply...a mod to the tach to make it more responsive!!! the stock miata tach evidently is slow to respond when the engine is revved quickly and thus doesn't quite show the engine rpm accurately...

replacing a capacitor 'fixes' the problemo!

now, the challenge for the 'HowTo' experts is to figure if this mod is applicable to our Pro's as well....

I can't see it being much different for the Pro, or even across the Mazda board (year dependent) but not knowing it's function, hard to say really. worth a looksee, since i now have a nice spare cluster and all...

i too was thinking that our tach should be similar....his miata is from the 'same' years as ours...
