Recalibrate with a tuner or bring it to someone to have it done. Or.....you can ride dead even along side someone in another car.

A tuner or a Dallas mustang speed cal. Getting my 4:10 gears installed next week[sm=gears.gif] and getting a Dallas speed cal to fix the speedo. They will ship the speed cal calibrated for your car and gear combo

You'll be dropping tenths off yor 0-60, if you have a awesome set of tires. If not, then good luck getting the results you want. I just bought a set of tires that are good for now but won't hold that 4:10 I'm getting next Moday [:@] Some Nitto's next spring will solve that problem though...
