Lude Generation

So,

In moving house I stumbled across this thing in the back of the wardrobe;

I'm thinking of installing it in the lude but without setting up the vtec controller as I don't want it to have control over anything. It would purely be as a rev counter & shift light as it turns out the one I have is way out

To do it this way all the wires would only be spliced and it's not modifying any signals so it should be fine yeah?

Don't worry I know what I'm doing with the wires

so why the question

yeah i would have though it would mean splicing a coulpe of wires at the ecu and a power and earth

Google the installation manual for the apexi afc for a wiring diagram

I've head bad things about lesser know branded stuff like this causing issues with the ECU, wanted to check if anyelse has acutally every experienced these issues

@bb4; I've already got one

well if you are just taking a feed of the ecu rev output i cant see it being an issue!

AutoTechnics stuff is quite reputable... There's just not much of it about. I remember theses though... There used to be loads of them on ebay for about £50 a pop.

You got it! That's when I decided to get one, probably around 3 years ago now

I bought an apexi VAFC soon after being told to avoid 'cheap' stuff. I guess it costs less as it's not trying to do the fuel corrections or anything

This will be going on my dashboard over the weekend

if you have a vafc you can probably just piggy back it off that!

Yeah I could but don't have the vafc anymore as i sold it with the last lude. Also the vafc has a rev counter option already

Installed this today, doesn't work

Got all the wires in and 1 light comes on, doesn't do anything if you start the car up either. DOH!
