Mine is close to that.
3rd gear you can take it all the way to 110+ until the speed limiter kicks in.

I'm on stock wheels.

i believe that for a brand new engine, the answer lies within the folds of the owner's manual. go pull it out of your glove box sometime.

alright, here is the quick fix.
Turn on your car with the needle out. This will set the stepper motor to 0mph/kph. Then just press it in at 0 without any play. Did it like a million times for DIY blue guages. For the tach, just remeber your idel or use your S(V)FAC for idel then just press the needle in. Gas, fill your tank then press it in, temp... drive around for a while till you think your middle and press it in. Thats it dude !! Enjoy.
