Default Power Logger ?

I have a power logger and I was wondering if there is a way to calibrate it so it reads the proper MPH. I have larger tires on it it is off by a lot. Is this possible or is it in the works.

O well maybe when they update the Power Logger they'll look at this correction. Its off about 5-6mph. My tires are larger than stock so thats life. There 275/65/15 I think. 60 or 65 one of them LOL.
thanks anyways

Seems like to me in the set up section of the powerlogger it would be easy enough to add a "what you had" and a "what you have" for gears and tires and let it calculate the offset for the ecm mph reading.

Head over to www.fullthrottletech.com and tell Bob your idea.

Just to keep you up to date. A new ver of soft ware can out for the power logger. It has a speed scale built in so you can correct the speed for different gears or tires. Not as user friendly as DS but its just came out.
