I personally wouldnt worry about it. The speedo wont be off my much at all.

I think at 55mph, it's reading 5mph high. So if you drive fast, it's kind of a safety measure. I have heard that there is some sort of computer tool that SATAN has that can correct it, but I don't know how true this info is. When I called him he said to fuck off, so I gladly did. He would probably charge me like 300 bones to do it anyway, that greedy cockbag! If anyone knows the name of the thing I'm talking about post it.

the dealer can use the DRB3 tool to set the pinion angle to 225*50*15 and you should be pretty close. I was told 25 bucks to do it, but I kind of am in with the service staff. Most will charge the standard 75 bucks, I dont really care most speedos are off anyways and I kind of like it, it keeps me from speeding.

and yes at 60 MPH i was over by exactly 5 mph (verified by GPS)
at 40 mph it was like 3 mph over

so at 60 mph my speedo says 65 mph.
