This past week at the annual SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) show in Las Vegas, AutoBlog discovered the TurboTach, a slick gauge and datalogging tool that will be made by Turbonetics that displays turbocharger speed. Knowing this kind of data can be invaluable for turbocharged tuners when trying to determine if their turbo is surging, choking or operating efficiently. It's like hooking your turbocharger up to an EKG machine.
It looks like Turbonetics plans to sell the TurboTach as a package with their turbochargers, since the center sections will need to be modified to fit the required speed sensors. More details will be available after Turbonetics actually releases the product to the public. The only bad news is that cars with twin turbos will require two TurboTachs.
