Default Speedo Correction

What have you guys with diesels done for speedo correction?

The Hypertech product works for Petrol cars, but as the US don't get the diesel it does not work on those.

I spoke to Jeep this morning as they are looking at some things on mine and they say they cannot adjust the speedo.

There is an instrument correction place that I've used in the past for things, but if I can avoid the $350 it will cost to do it through him I'd rather do that.

Cheers

AEV Procal - about $200 from JeepKonection

reprograms transmission for axle ratio, tyre dia, tyre pressure and some others.

Its slightly "flakey" IMO in that somtimes you have to do it multiple times before it "takes" but overall does the job.
