As I recall from when I was trying to get my speedometer corrected, there wasn't any standard speedo recalibraturs out there... you actually had to take it to a speedo shop and they'd use resisters of various capacities and things... but what I ended up doing was getting a custom programmed superchip, and I seem to recall some of the programmers can do the same thing... but they can set it for whatever size tire you are running and it will adjust the speedometer automatically... and increase performance a bit :). It was a better deal than getting the speedometer recalibrated.
of course I could be totally wrong too.

Matt is right, I dont know what four wheel parts charges ( probably 400 bucks, because everythig at 4 wheel parts is 400 bucks lol ) but they have all of that figured out.
I know some guys would use resistors and calculate how much resistance going through the VSS harness they needed. how I dont know.

I know that they make them that you can buy for like $300 but if I had an extra $300 I would buy a programmer instead cause they can also recal the odometer too, Just thought I would see if anyone had one.

uhh I don't know any programmers that can recall the odometer, seeing as how last I checked that's actually a felony...
