    S2 Speedometer limit -> Need for RS2 speedometer?

    Hi,

    Just a few weeks back I was driving thru Germany and noticed that flat-out the speedometer stops at 285 km/h, while the car was still accelerating.
    Is there a hard limit of the speedometer, or is there another component that is not able to transfer the correct info the the meter?

    Would a RS2 speedometer solve this issue, or will I get a wrong signal conversion from drive train to speedometer?

    Yeah, on the UK speedometers there is a stop at about 172mph iirc.

    The RS2 unit goes further round so if you installed one of them it should solve that problem...
