Thinking speedo is off

[UNVMY240]

Car is bone stock except kyb with tein springs.

Wanted to get some input from others on how fast are you going in 5th gear and tach reading 2800 rpms. Mine is reading about 65 mph if I remember correctly will double check tonight on my drive home from work. What I'm getting to is I think my speedo is fast. I think I am running about 60mph when it says 65. Tired to get with my cop friend to radar me but been having schedule conflicts.

Okay I was off... At 2900 rpms I am rolling about 70 mph. 2100 rpms I am at 50mph. and at 1950 I am at about 45mph.

I wish wee did have the light pole speedo sign around here. I think people would slow it down alittle or then again maybe not.

Thanks for the help

You could always try driving past one of those lightpole mounted radars if there are any in your area. The ones that show everyone how fast your going.

Mine seems to be 5mph faster than it really is, kind of like how yours is. Though in my case I'm not stock.

Are you using stock size wheels?
