G series turbo speed sensor

on a thunder, probably. On any other model, it will exceed the max frequency input.

its going to send 1x pulse per blade that goes past it. If you have 10x blades in your compressor, @100,000 rpm you are seeing 16666 blades per second. Even a thunder DI maxes out at 6500hz - so with a lower number of blades or a lower expected turbo rpm then yes.

Just for your info - all the common ones I have seen (garret & BW) have a "divide by 8" circuit built into the connector.  I believe this was because back in the day most compressor wheels had 8 blades so it would output one pulse per rev.  So your example would actuallly give a frequency of ~2100Hz.   So, fine for a Thunder but too high for the smaller ECU's.

@Booston  If you dont have a Thunder you will have to do something like this:
