Human results will be the same as calcs... You need to factor in tire size, trans' gear ratios, etc. I mean, what are you expecting? The calculator to be wrong? Well, there is always your speedo-gauge not reading correctly. Everyone says the Tach is off (mine oddly is right on). That's per-person though, won't be static across multiple people.
When I switched to 3.42s I did a calc and showed, that since my speedo is off a few MPH, that it'll now be right on now. I have yet to test that, but being such a small change I'm confident it'll be right on now.
