SRI Installed... Speedometer seems off...

So I just installed my SRI I received as a gift... Pretty straight forward set up. Sounds grrrreat. But something I've noticed, the speedometer seems off. Seems faster than I'm really going. Upon my 1st test drive to WOT, the car seem to buck back just a sec and I let go. But right after that the speedometer seemed to be off.. Install seem good, everything is pretty tight. Anything I should look at? Other than that everything seems to be working good.

The only way to really know if your speedo is off is by a GPS.

it might be due to your 19' wheels. There is a calculator you can use. You type in your Tire specs compared to stock and it will tell you how off your speedo is.
