Default Replacing an airspeed indicator

For some reason my glider came with an indicator with a ridiculously high maximum reading. I would like to replace it with something that has much more space in the most often used regions of the dial. Can you just install a new instrument or does it need to be somehow calibrated or tuned to an individual Pitot tube installation?

Thanks for your experience.


I bought a used ASW-27 altimeter from someone on RAS. I now have a glider that flies as fast as the ASW-27 for substantially less money.
