hey guys using this shift light are you satisfied with the quality and accuracy of this product, i want to get one in a few weeks.. i know some of you guys have them, just want some product quality feedfack. thanks in advance

Excellent product!! I absolutely love mine. It is a breeze to hook up, you can dial it in to whatever RPM you want, and it is small enough to mount just about anywhere. I purchased a set of gauge pods from Speed of Sound and they have a partnership with Raptor. So if you order pods with the "Raptor Claw" your Raptor shift light mounts right on the gauge pods.

Nice setup Hawgman.. looks clean. How was the guage install?

 

Gauge install wasn't bad at all. Had to drill and tap for the H2O sensor but other than that pretty cut and dry for the gauges I installed. As I have said in other threads though, the narrowband is as useless as nipples on a snake. But.... I had the gauge already, needed something to fill the hole, so that was what I hooked up. I may have a future need for some other gauge and if that time comes that one will get replaced.

 

yea it looks badass and seems really easy to install but is it really ACCURATE??, and what color wire did you use at the coil for the driver? thanks...

 

The green wire on the coil pack just like it shows in the instructions.

I don't know specifically accurate it is. Accurate enough. Not like I are going to be able to shift at the EXACT nanosecond that the light comes on anyway. If I set it for 6kRPM, i'm sure that is going to be when the light comes on, give or take a couple of RPM. It takes the reading straight off of the coil pack firing a spark plug. Hard to get much more accurate than the number of times the plug fires.

Curious as to why you are questioning the accuracy and how accurate you actually expect it to be, and how quickly you think you can react to the light in order to assure that accuracy... It's not like Raptor is a fly by night company that just popped up in the last 6 months.

 

i have never had a shift light on a coiloverplug car but i have had some high rpm distributor cars get a sloppy shift light before... im going to get one for sure... i just wanted to make sure it wasnt unreliable... thanks hawgman i think im going with the black case with yellow led's

 

which ever LED color you go with, you will probably end up with the rubber cap on it. The dang thing is kind of like staring in to the sun with tooth pics holding your eyelids open.

 

Hawgman: What did that set up cost U? (as shown)

Thanks

The Speed of Sound gauge pod was $119 plus shipping, the Raptor shift light was $89 plus shipping. The two Revo gauges I already had, but they were around 50 or so each.
