Amazing how much airspeed you can pick up with the proper instrument ;-)

My old Coupe showed 115-118 in cruise all the time and I wondered why my trip
time was so much longer than my careful flight plans said they should be -
headwinds both ways on short trips? Doing really accurate calibration showed
it was way off and I was really going 100.3 or so, true.
The replacement airspeed indicator showed accurate airspeeds after the
appropriate calculations for density altitude, etc., (checked again with really
accurate calibration procedures).
