Speedo-Recalibration


How do i recalibrate my speedo after i put 4.10 gears in my car? and i dont have money to buy the x-cal 2. Can i just go to a ford dealership and have them redo it?

I hate to say it but ford will probably charge you more to correct your speedo, then it would be the actual cost of the x-cal 2.

umm im not sure about that. Whenever you find out if ford is cheaper tell me because im looking at getting gears too. Also a tuner is a big thing when your modding. Why dont you just save up some money until you can get a tuner. It will save you money in the long run.

Just get gas saver tunes. He can't be unhappy with that. Just make sure you have a 93 oct. performance tune on there. But ford will charge about 200 bucks to redo a speedo for gears.
