Can I Upgrade My Kart To TAG?

"Can I Upgrade My Kart To TAG?" is a question that I have been asked on several occasions, and I am sure that the answer of; Yes you can, will please many people!

This involves a few simple steps...

1. For this demonstration I am going to start with a Junior TKM engine (pictured below)



2. Purchase a kart battery with a simple 4 pin attachment (pictured below)

3. Connect the two, four pin cable together.

4. With the spare black cable coming out of the Junior TKM engine it can now be used as a rev monitor for a Mychron 4 (you need to buy a Mychron Cable and it plugs into the middle socket on the rear of the Mychron 4) - if you do not own a Mychron 4 you will have to buy a IEC terminal connector which plugs into the black cable and cuts the current off. 

5. This should now provide you with a TAG system, and a working Mychron 4 providing a rev meter and lap timer.
