Yeah, I've got one.

What’s the RPM range (idle versus 5th gear rev limiter) just curious?

 

[trigger]

Usually idle at around 700. Never paid too close of attention to rev limit rpm's but pretty sure I've seen 3600 before and that was screaming for a shift.

On order. Thanks again.

Couple things I learned about it during and after install... that green back light doesn't stay on, only when you hit the button and goes out after a short time. The wire that came with it that you wrap around the spark plug wire wasn't long enough, had to add some. It takes a watch battery and when that starts to crap out the green light will turn on and off on its own indicating it needs replaced.
I originally put it in to try to teach the wife when to shift instead of relying on the sound or feel of it. Didn't really work that well as it was just giving her something else to have to pay attention to.

Thanks for the info. LOL. Same here with the misses.
