Speedo Recalibration
Hi everyone!
I just put a 3.42 rear in my 97 auto, I can't seem to find anyone who can recalibrate my speedo. I have the hypertech, but it only reprograms for the stock sizes of 2.73 and 3.15(false advertising, think I might return it). Is it possible to recalibrate? If so what does it involve or who should I call? Also, I want to lower the car about an inch, maybe a little less, again nobody in Las Vegas seems to know how. How complicated is this procedure?
Any help would be appreciated, thank you. :confused:

Re: Speedo Recalibration (Sihler)
You don't need to recalibrate the speedo for gear changes in a C5, only tire size changes. However the shift point in an automatic may need adjusting. Either way you can have it calibrated with LS1 Edit. You may want to consider having a tuner do this for you and checking out the C5 Scan and Tune sections here. :cheers:

Find someone w/ LS-1 Edit or a similar program to calibrate your speedo.
