Milomiter from kilo-miles...????

Another quickie please...I have a couple of guys seeking me a (Hopefully)Good evo,As your aware...Now if i get a imported evo....The milomiter and speedo will read in kilomiters,That i understand,Gets adjusted at the sva centre....To read in "NOW" miles per hour and odomiter in miles....However,Is there a way to adjust the kilomiters recorded to miles covered to the same value...(Without no frauding of any shape or form)..If there was,i was going to take a photograph of the kilomiters before adjustment to verify..(It will also be on the MOT certificate)...
I would rather it be in miles covered......Can this be done please......?????? Kev.

If you get the MPH converter fitted you should get a certificate.. Take that to Mitsubishi and ask for a new odometer/speedo jobby and they should calibrate that to your new mileage.. Jobs a goodun..
