      You can not commit crimes in a Aveo. Its just not fast enough.

      It's too slow. When I double clutch, I know the revs higher than actually posted on the dial. There must a a capacitor somewhere dampening the action... to make it look smooth.

      i noticed its a lil slow myself but its not enough for me to warrrant buying a new one. as long as you know your car and arent running it hard, there really is no need IMO to replace the stocker with an aftermarket one. too much hassle.

      I think the point here, is he has one, he wants to install it... who cares if he needs it or not ... Ill pull the dash apart this week, and see if I can figure out how it should be mounted ..

      Click on the right link (for the year aveo you have) and check for the TACH wire in which you have to splice.
