Yep, gonna have to either buy a tuning program or find someone that has it to do it for you. You might be able to get a shop to do it for you but they will more than likely charge you quite a bit. Where are you located?

Carefully bend your speedometer pin to match at the particular speed you want to be correct...................

Or.... Use a Predator etc or find someone with tuning software to adjust it for you. Unfortunately, no other way to do it.

Good luck!!

Most will do for a small fee, unfortunately if you dont know of anyone around, you will have to send off your PCM and be down for a few days. PM me I can tell who if needed...
