You really need a shift light if you plan on going to the track. Plus, the stock Tach is not the most accurate thing in the world. The MSd light is about $70, is three wires to hook up, and a 5 RPM pack is about $25. I would shift at around 5200-5400.

I dissagree, I run consistant 13.6's with all stock gagues.

The stock tach really isn't all that inacurate untill you really start winding it up.
