Default 200MPH Guages?

Is there some kit out there that would let me install the 200MPH Saleen gauges? I've searched around and can't find anything.

They should hook right up as far as plug and play but I dont know if they are calibrated different or anything.

The fastest i got my car to was 115 m.p.h... i ran out of road room. I figure i could have gotten it up to at least 120-125.

Question!!! Does anyone have a problem with there car "floating" when it gets going too fast? Mine starts to float around 65 mph. I think i my need to shocks.

Assuming there's no fuel cut off, you've got the stock wheels and stock rear gear, then 200.5 MPH.
