Like for the 91-94 that I'm working with now. I'm not going to change the 110 MPH to something higher. I'm going to add lines or "tick" marks past the 110. I know when the needle goes past the 110 mark it may not read as accurate as it should but it won't be off that much. I know in my old 89 MX-6 Turbo I had it up to 125 once and up to 120 on an old 90 Corolla a few times. When I'm done with the speedo (I'm working on it right now) I'll post a picture so you can see what I mean. I already finished the tach. Notice how it goes to 8500 instead of 8000 RPM?
