I am having trouble over the term "fooler" why not call it a correction device?

I mean that is what it does, it corrects the pulses per revolution at the source rather then the end point. I too work with electronics daily, and use signal conditioning constantly. Garbage in = garbage out, so I would rather take in a corrected signal then to take in a wrong signal and try to make it right.

just my thought - thanks for the discussion!

have a great weekend

for maintenance i know my odo is 10% off, and i use the speed display on my gps. i agree that driving with the speedo that far off is hard. I use the word fooler, because you fooling the computer into thinking it still has stock tires rather than correcting the calculations the computer does.

Does it get the job done, absolutely. Does it do the right way, not in my opinion.
