Definitely include the tire diameter in your calculations.

That is unfortunate. When I calculate the circumference with the tire it is about 1988mm. The default setting on the speedometer was 1900, and at that setting it felt like it was reading half the speed I was going. The unfortunate part is that the max setting is 2,999 so I am unable to double it to be more accurate. Guess I might need another speedo

How have you determined the actual speed you're going? Is it possible you were switch to km/h instead of mph?

I input what Goldoxide said and it still feels off. I'm going by feeling since I don't have anything else to measure speed by. I'd have to spend more time on it and have someone drive next to me to get it dialed in. I had it set for mph and it felt off. I switched it to kph and that reading feels more accurate to what I should be doing in mph.

70mph in 5th is 3600rpm on a 2014.

wanobiben - Strap on a GPS app and profile a run from zero to whatever and track the error between the GPS and the candidate instrumentation.
Also track "high speed" to zero.
