I use the microtech output as well, but my tach reads double. Any certain setting you need? Doesn't the tach read like a 4cyl or something?
Which color wire is from the tach straight? Am I missing something?

Stock RX-7 tach reads like a 4 cylinder. 99% of all 20B-capable ECUs will output a 6 cylinder 'signal', but some, like the E11 as j9fd3s mentioned, have a multiplier/divider and can be used on a stock tach without adjustment.

Yeah.. Did that. Doesn't work. Tach reads 1.5 - 2X the actual. Maybe I need a converter? Ideas?
