Go to:

Then scroll down on the left to rpm range program...

Here is a sample output.  The key item is to go measure you tire diameter.

Differential Gear = 4.22 to 1 
Transmission Gear = 1.00 to 1 
Tire Diameter (Inches) = 22.76 
Tire Growth Factor = 0.000100 (Inches/(MPH*MPH)) 
Computation Results:
