Its ok, im just trying to clarify things. Its either a 1.6 or its a 2003, it cant be both... if its an '03 than its got the 2.0

any way to have a tach installed easilly? my model doesnt have a tach and it would be nice to have one

Check out the tach I have in my sig slideshow, or you can swap out your gauge cluster to a P5 or MSP cluster, only thing is you will have red lights instead of green and you will have the mileage from the new cluster instead of your origional mileage.

yeah i like ur tach, but is there a connection, or would i have to do alot of wiring?

One wire to a 12v power source, one to a ground, one to the violet/white wire going into your diagnostics box(I can take pics if needed), and an optional dim wire going into a 12v power sorce for the headlights.

Ill have to get the pic in the morning, but its the little grey box that says diagnostics under the hood between the whiper motor and the strut tower. The little box just pops up so you have better access and there will be a bunch of wires going into the bottom of it, you will have to unwrap the wires to get to them. And to top it off the wiring harness for the gauge comes with it so all youll need is a few extra feet of wires and come wire crimping materials:)
 
Oh, and if you click on the link in my sig that says "follow the progress of my car" it will take you to my car domain page, lots of good ideas for you and what you can do with your DX in there:)
