Question about A-Tap

I am seeing a max of 5700 rpms but my stock tach is showing 6200. any idea what could be causing this?

3:73 gears (car is programmed for 3:42's tho)
i think that might be why but i am not sure. anything else i should look at

Re: Question about A-Tap

Stock tach reads higher than actual engine RPM. Common problem. The gears will not affect how the PCM reads the tach (of the Opti pulse signals).
