    you just have to remember that its still just an overlay. you need to tune the speedo to the new gauge if you get a higher top speed.

    From the looks of it, the new overlay in the pictures he linked doesn't change the calibration. It simply extends the gauge so that as the needle continues to track down there are numbers for reference.

    I glanced and didn't see any 150MPH speedos at the speedhut.

    For some reason I thought your speedos went higher than 115. MC SS's and Impala LS Sports and up have 140MPH speedos, so I just assumed the GTP did too.

    x2 but what do I know. Still, I think this is another good discussion that should go in an interior section if we had one....

    well being that i dont really have the money right now with the body work i have to do im not getting it YET. i just want something different, after a while the stock gauges get boring. kinda off topic but does anyone know where i could possibly get a rolling body and chassis (maybe even with interior) no motor or rims or anything like that just body and chassis i can drop my motor into instead of fixing alot of my body (it's ALOT worse then wat it looks like)

    That speedo pic you showed makes no sense at all. It should go up in increments of 10mph, as it does till 110mph, but after that it goes up in increments of 20mph. ???
