Default Turbo causing speedometer prolems??

when i hit vtech after installing my turbo kit, the needle bounces everywhere!! from like 30-120mph!! but when i'm full on racing it sits at 0..can anybody evaluate??
also: I installed a ecg perfamance electronics o2 simulator...if that adds to the problem.

hey mark, does your engine say "vtech?" . just ******* with you.

yeah his gauge is weird...get into second and BAM you're going 120 at 6k. probably the G's your turbo R pulls threw it off...

my tach kinda had the same problem, it would bounce from 20 km to 50 km. I found out that it was from a burnt out fuse to the alternator. check your fuses
