If the ladder tach and boost gauge is like sex the ladder tach and Interceptor gauge is like a threesome.

I left the first two knobs stock and set the third one to 7,000 rpm.

I don't really pay much attention to the guage, the tach lights do it for me! LOL I beat the snot out of the car for a month just to see those lights flash! Still do it often, especially if I have a passenger that says "what's that for"? LOL

Something weird has happened a few times on mine though... that is sometimes the yellow lights would flash on and off 3 times when they would light up. At 1st I was kinda freaked out, then I started to really enjoy it like that, then it stopped doing it. I think I hit the buttons on the back when I was wiping /cleaning the dash.
