Kinda irritating if you ask me. I need to get a GPS or something. I was the one who talked about it before. It bugs me because the only time it is accurate is when you are cruising. I calculted the top speeds in each gear and they came out correct while pulling it on the dyno It made it to 111-112 before it hit the fuel cut at 6800. The car says 104-105 which is annoying to me. My 9 year old beater Ranger has a speedmeter that works better than this one.

Well, a GPS will have the same issue. It takes position readings and calculates the changes in position over a certain time to find your direction/speed, so even it will lag by a small amount.

Oh, and it won't work on a dyno since you're not going anywhere.

Sorry to thread jack, but I thought you might want to know that interesting point about the stock speedometer.
