I'm getting 4:10's in the next few days. And before I spend $250+ for a Diablo hand held. Do, I have to worry about speedo or tach being thrown off? Is there anything else I have to worry about when I get them?

All you have to do is replace the speedo-gear to the appropriate one for 4'10's. I did that when I got my 373's. But your speedo and stuff will be way off with 410's

If you have an 02 you have to get one of the following: Speedcal, chip, or a tuner. There is no speedo gear to replace.

I do believe that, with the new edge stangs, they went to an electronic pickup. get the tuner.

I might have just enough for a Diablo hand held. Found one for $250.

get the tuner... you will be much happier with it... it can do so much more than just calibrate the speedo.

The speedo is gonna be off. If you don't have the $ for the Diablo now, wait...and get your gears done when you do. You'll be happier in the long run! And if you buy a used one, make sure the stock tune is erased from it...they "marry" themselves to a VIN number; if the stock tune is present, you can't use it!

How can I make sure? And if it isn't, can I still erase it? [ November 27, 2005, 02:48 PM: Message edited by: 02GeeTee ]

Plug it in to the OBD-II port, it will tell you if it's good to go or not. If it's not, have the owner load his stock tune back into his car...and all is well!
