    lol..... of course, then you can have a car like mine where you swap in new gauges from a car with MORE miles.... so according to the DMV my mileage is "other"

    new engine...old ecu...MILEAGE

    alright so now i have an engine with 12k miles that will be going in place of my engine that threw a rod.

    the ecu will still read as 32XXX and so will my odo.

    does anyone know if toysport or elp(not elcmotorsports :p ) can roll it back?

    or what do i do??

    You make note, take pictures and keep it where you can present it for future proof. Rolling the odometer back is illegal, by anyone.

    The odomoter is not just to track miles on the engine, but miles the car itself has gone. You still have 32K miles on the transmission, CV joints, etc...
