do a few drive cycles is all.

(meaning running the car from when you start it in the morning until it's nice and warm after you have been driving it for 20 minutes )

I would say your speedometer will be off by 10mph on the highway, thats what happened to me when I was going 80 I was really going 70. I fixed it with a sct tuner.
