I would assume signal which will most likely be green.

Did you ever figure this out? I am also looking for both. I'm pretty certain that the TPS voltage wire (VTA) is the green/cream stripe on the TB but i am unsure of the RPM wire that everyone uses. I searched and found that the red/white wire on the ECU on connector A5 number 15 is the Tach signal wire. Is this correct?

Thank you for the info. Do you know if my tachometer wire assumption is correct?

Yes, pin 15 on the A5 connector is a red/white wire and is labeled (TACH).

that wire goes to Junction Connector A29 Pin 17
