The car will be going about 5km/h faster than it says, you just divide the old ratio by the new ratio.

this should still be relevant for your car,

The bigger the ratio the more accurate well if you just did that then your speedo will over-read by about 17%. The speedo gear goes into the gearbox, so it works off how fast that gearbox is rotating. If you put a different diff in without changing the speedo gear then the car will be going slower/faster than it would with the original diff-so the speedo is off.

The speedo will read slower if you put a 3.08 instead of the stock 3.23.
And if you change the speedo gear the shift patterns will be out in the auto but the speedo will be correct |
