By the seat of the pants feel, it seems that the speed being reported is higher than actual.

I don't see how that is possible as I (at least what I had) am running the highest gear ratio. If that's the case, then it shouldn't be possible.

That does seem more than a little strange. I think I'd do some verification using mile markers.

Off topic, but I'm curious to know how the car felt with the turbo engine installed while it still had the 3.46 rear end in it.
