Im just about to change my speedo to a UK MPH unit from the TRD 300 kph unit.
My quesiton is - does the speed reading need to be converted as i haave a power fc, or is there a setting on the power fc to convert KPH to MPH?

your help as ever will be grealy received

Rob

Robbie - stock UK Speedo IIRc has a range from 0-180mph which is 0-300KMH i.e regardless of what speed you are doing the angle if teh needle SHOULD correspond to either a KMH or MPH whch is infact the same speed just a different unit.

Upshot is there should be no alterations required.

Unfortunately the Power Fc will always read /log in KMH.

When i fitted the UK speedo to my old 4 - its worked fine (that had a converter). NOw when i fitted it to mutley, it goes off the clock - like its relating to a 110 mph jap clock?

Aha, sorry robbie - I see where you are cing from now. You will need to get a convertor I am afraid. The Power Fc cannot adjust teh speedo.
