Marcucci and I used a couple bolts and nuts to step it out. We put one bolt through one hole on the output shaft, and another on the opposite side. Tighten one a couple turns, then tighten the other side a couple turns ... repeat until it comes out.

Just curious, what setting did you use on your yellow box? Are you just using a percent change to keep the speedo near the same reading, or trying to get it more accurate with a GPS?

The gears are about an 8% change in speedo error. Then, the stock car has between 1% to 2% error. I dialed in +9% and then got another S2000 to pace me at different speeds. This brought my speedo to almost exactly what the other car was at, so I figured I had about the same error as a stock car. I may get paced by a police car some day and find myself dialing in that last +1% and be dead on.

Ok, I'm shooting for the 8.25% (from the gear calculation). I'm trying to keep the same typical margin of error in speedos that car companies usually build in.
