its the tachometer pulser wire you have to tap into. you have coil packs so im not sure where to find this wire but get a downloadable manual and it should tell you. **** im old school i have a 88 so mine has a dist and its easy. little blue wire comin out of the bugger. might be same color for you but id check first because their could be hundreds of blue wires in the car

I think it is still a blue wire you can find at the cluster-- even in models with no stock tach, but pull a diagram to be sure. In the distributorless system the tach pulses come from the ECU.
