It can't read less than the actual speed. At 100 kmh it must read between 100 and 114. There is a formula. 10 % + 4 kmh.

Not technically "illegal" as such. Apparently the regulations for a new vehicle to be allowed for sale/registration in Oz has a limit on how far out the speedo can be.
The reason they overstate the speed is so you don't have a chance of sending your speeding tickets to the manufacturer.

Just remember the Nanocom ratio will NOT alter what the vehicle speedo displays, you need a C6100-4 to alter the vehicle speedo. The Nanocom ratio only alters the speed the Nanocom displays.

I changed my Nanocom setting from 1.1 to1.0 and now I’m happy with both readings, the speedo and Nano are nearly 100% accurate and I’m keeping up with the rest of the traffic at the speed limit.
