Yea, That's what I started with It was still reading too fast, so I tried 2800mm and it read faster, so now I've got it at 1800mm and still don't have it My speedometer is reading slow (shows 60 when i'm at 62), and my odometer shows me traveling 0.9 miles for every real mile...

well hell. I guess I would start with that 2521mm and start subtracting 150mm till I reached the correct speed.

Also remember the mechanical speedo has a +/- 3mph

How far off is your odometer? i can live with the speedo being off, but having incorrect mileage really annoys me.

Thats a good question man.I cant help ya there,lol.Reason being is i didnt get my Evo till after my 35's.So for about 2months i was driving around with my speedo not re-calibrated and that effects the mileage odometer.So what my mileage shows probly is off by a couple hundred milesSorry man.

Well, by odometer I meant tripometer as well. lol. I mostly concerned with calculating fuel mileage. I suppose I can just use a gps and figure the exact % I'm off... stupid math...

I have a 07 FX4 5.4L Flex Fuel, I usually run my chip on stage 2, but I want to "beef" up the performance. So I was wondering what settings I need to change when I get premium gas and change to stage 3 on the chip. I have read to change shift firmness and timing. But i dont know what to adjust them to. I want more performance, but I do not want to damage or stress my truck. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Sorry im really new to things, but really am leaning towards the edge evo and s&b CAI purchase.. Having a CIA, would this mess with your tuning any? Really hate to mess something up when I get both on, so figured it was safer to ask and see what you guys thought

I wouldn't change any of the standard settings till you run a couple tanks on level 3 and see the difference. I run my shift firmness at +7 for all 3 shifts, though some guys run up to +12.
I've advanced my timing to 1.5 and it seems to be running stronger, but I haven't had it long enough to notice any mpg gain.

The Evo is great and I'm sure that the S&B intake will work fine. If you have a 04-05 you'll need to get some custom tunes with the Evo, otherwise you'll run the risk of running lean from the cai
