i just realized if you turn your tuner on 456 gears and set it to real small wheels youd clock way less miles

Right. It's against the law to do so.

he's not really messing tempting with it per say, it's not like he's rolling the mileage back. its like going to 4.10's without doing the speedo calibration

ya my friend put on some 410s and his odometer goes up hella faster than normal! should i report him for changing the calibration? lol
its just a hypothetical question
it occured to me that i have a tuner to adjust for 410s and if i did that without putting them on id have the opposite problem with my odometer

Haha, I don't think anybody will report you.. However, I would never buy a car or car part that you had for sale in the Ford Sale section. [patriot]
